Paper Format and Paper Writing Guidelines

Please follow these guidelines when writing your papers.

ADADA International Journal / Proceedings Template

Please use the templates provided for each submission category when preparing your manuscript. All submissions must be in PDF format. 

We strongly recommend preparing your manuscript in LaTeX format (Overleaf). Since Word documents often require various technical checks to be handled manually, we have found that submissions in LaTeX are less likely to encounter issues.

The division of Journals and Proceedings in ADADA is as follows. Please note that not all categories of Proceedings are necessarily open for submission. Additionally, calls for categories not listed here may be conducted on an experimental basis. In the International Conference, Technical Papers and Art Papers may be solicited as part of the Journal Track. In such cases, accepted papers will be included in the Journal as Original Articles and Art Papers, respectively.

Double-Blind Review and Anonymization

Journal

ADADA Journal adopts a double-blind peer review process. Authors must anonymize their submissions appropriately so that reviewers cannot easily identify the authors or their affiliations.

Please remove author names, affiliations, acknowledgements, and identifiable metadata from the review manuscript.

Proceedings

ADADA Conference Proceedings adopts a single-blind review process. Authors do not need to anonymize their submissions unless otherwise specified by the conference track or submission category. However, if you are considering submitting to the Journal Track, please ensure that your submission is anonymized, as the Journal Track follows the same review process as the Journal, which is double-blind.

Size, Color and Language

Use A4 paper size (210 x 297 mm) in black and white. All articles should be 6 up to ten (10) pages long, excluding references and be written in English.

First Page

The first page should include the following items : title, subtitle, author’s name, co-author’s name, e-mail address, institutional affiliation, the abstract and keywords. The body text should be set to 10-20mm spacing. Please write the person’s name in the following order, last name and first name, and then a comma between them(e.g. Obama, Barack H). The layouts of the first page are different between the Original Article and Art Paper. Please refer to each layout sample.

Fonts

Please use the following fonts.

Abstract

Keywords

Pick three words that best describe your article. Specifying 4 or more keywords or fewer than 3 keywords is not allowed.

Headline

The article should be classified under the following : big headlines, chapters, medium headlines, sections, subheads, paragraph. The text of article is usually divided into the following sections: introduction, method, discussion, summary, conclusion, etc. Please use bold-face fonts for headlines.

Caption

The space between figures(or tables) and body text should be 5-10mm. You can make figures span across more than one column. In this case, the figures should be placed on the top or bottom of the page. Put captions below pictures or above tables. All caption text should be written as such “Figure1 Title” with the figure number. Please place table captions above the table and figure captions below the figure. Captions must be referred to in the main text of the paper.

Incorrect use of figures and tables, such as using "figure" for non-diagrammatic elements or presenting tables as plain text or figures instead of proper table items, will lead to a desk reject.

Reference

All references should be cited in numerical order according to their order of appearance. Each reference number should be enclosed in square brackets[ ]. References must include the following elements. Please put a comma(,) between each of the elements. If you are using TeX, we strongly recommend using BibTeX.

Data

The document must be submitted in Adobe Acrobat PDF. No changes will be permitted after the submission deadline.
