but adequate introduction to subject and the related issues. After that
you may deal with your topic as you see fit. In the end you should

your work and draw conclusions on what you have said. You may wish to
study
some conference papers or journal articles to get a hold on the
structure
of the papers in general.
References
Your paper must contain the references that you have used during your
work.
All references in any form be that books, conference papers, journal
papers,
other research work, Internet drafts, RFCs, and WWW-sites should be
referred
to in the references section.

they
will be published in the laboratory series as one edited book. The
basic
requierement for a paper even to be considered for publication is the
correct
