BibTeX Guidelines

General Instructions

Authors submitting manuscripts to the Indonesian Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics must manage their references using BibTeX. The journal follows the Vancouver citation style, which uses numerical citations in square brackets, e.g., [1], [2]. Below are the general guidelines for formatting references in BibTeX.

Required BibTeX Fields

Each entry type in BibTeX must include specific fields. The mandatory and optional fields for common reference types are listed below.

	number  = {Issue Number},
	pages   = {Start Page--End Page},
	year    = {Publication Year},
	doi     = {DOI Number},
}

Example:

@article{smith2023,

Citation Style

• The journal follows the Vancouver citation style.
• Citations should appear in numerical order, enclosed in square brackets, e.g., [1], [2], [3].
• If multiple references are cited together, they should be separated by commas (e.g., [1,3,5]).
• If a range of references is cited, use a hyphen (e.g., [2-5]).

Bibliography Management

• Ensure all references are cited in the text.
• Use consistent formatting for all entries.
• Provide DOIs for journal articles whenever possible.
• Avoid excessive self-citation.
• Ensure that author names are spelled correctly and formatted consistently.

Submission Requirements

Authors should include their BibTeX .bib file along with their manuscript submission. The .bib file should be properly formatted and tested for errors using a LaTeX editor before submission.

If you have any questions about reference formatting, please contact the editorial office of the Indonesian Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics.
