B. Structure of The Manuscript
The manuscript must be prepared and suggested present follow the structure:
1. Title. 
The title of the paper is maxed 10 words, without Acronym or abbreviation. Paper’s title should be the fewest possible words that accurately describe the content of the paper (Center, Bold, 16pt)
 
2. Abstract. 
The Abstract has a minimum of 100 words and a maximum of 200 words; with No citation; State in the abstract a primary objective, research design, methodology, main outcomes, results, and conclusions. A well-prepared abstract enables the reader to identify the basic content of a document quickly and accurately, to determine its relevance to their interests, and thus to decide whether to read the document in its entirety. The abstract should be informative and completely self-explanatory, provide a clear statement of the problem, the proposed approach or solution, and point out major findings and conclusions.
 
3. Section structure. 
Authors are suggested to present their articles in the section structure: 
 
 Introduction
The main text format consists of a flat left-right columns on A4 paper. The margin text from the left are 3 cm and top, right and bottom  are 2.5 cm. The manuscript is written in Microsoft Word, single space, Time New Roman 10 pt, and maximum 12 pages for original research article, which can be downloaded at the website: https://iei-science.org/journal/index.php/ijcs.
A title of article should be the fewest possible words that accurately describe the content of the paper. The title should be succinct and informative and no more than about 12 words in length. Do not use acronyms or abbreviations in your title and do not mention the method you used, unless your paper reports on the development of a new method. Titles are often used in information-retrieval systems. Avoid  writing  long  formulas  with  subscripts  in  the  title. Omit all waste words such as "A study of ...", "Investigations of ...", "Implementation of ...”, "Observations on ...", "Effect of.....", “Analysis of …”, “Design of…”, etc. 
A concise  and  factual  abstract  is  required.  The  abstract  should  state  briefly  the  purpose  of  the research, the principal results and major conclusions. An abstract is often presented separately from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. For this reason, References should be avoided, but if essential, then cite the author(s) and year(s). Also, non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided, but if essential they must be defined at their first mention in the abstract itself. Immediately after the abstract, provide a maximum of 5 keywords, using American spelling and avoiding general and plural terms and multiple concepts (avoid, for example, 'and', 'of'). Be sparing with abbreviations: only abbreviations firmly established in the field may be eligible. These keywords will be used for indexing purposes. 
 
Method 
Explaining research chronological, including research design, research procedure (in the form of algorithms, Pseudocode or other), how to test and data acquisition. The description of the course of research should be supported references, so the explanation can be accepted scientifically. Figures and Table  are presented center.
 
Results and Discussion 
In this section, it is explained the results of research and at the same time is given  the comprehensive discussion. Results can be presented in figures, graphs, tables and others that make the reader understand easily. The discussion can be made in several sub-sections.
 
Conclusion
Provide a statement that what is expected, as stated in the "INTRODUCTION" section can ultimately result in "RESULTS AND DISCUSSION" section, so there is compatibility. Moreover, it can also be added the prospect of the development of research results and application prospects of further studies into the next (based on result and discussion).
 
4. References. 
Expect a minimum of 10 references is expected, preferably with at least 80% from journal papers from the last 5 years.
