It should not contain any reference citations or displayed equations. Typeset the abstract in 10 pt roman with single spacing, making an indentation of 18 pt on the left and right margins.

1. THE MAIN TEXT Auhors are allowed to write in Bahasa Malaysia or English for the prosiding. Authors are encouraged to have their contribution checked for grammar and typos. American spelling may be used. If you decide to use American spelling, make sure it is consistently used throughout your paper. Likewise if you are using British spelling abbreviations are allowed but should be spelt out in full when first used. Integers ten and below are to be spelt out. Italicize foreign language phrases (e.g. Latin, French). The text is to be typeset in 11 pt roman with single spacing. Text area is 5 inches in width and the height is 8 inches (including running head). Final pagination and insertion of running titles will be done by the publisher. Important Remarks Do not number the pages of your manuscript. Please observe that the conference page limits is six (6). It is necessary to try to produce pages taking into account that your document will be a camera ready manuscript to be published in A4 papers. No detailed design work will be undertaken by the conference organization as part of the production process.

2. MAJOR HEADINGS Major headings should be typeset in boldface with capital letters. 2.1 Sub-headings Sub-headings should be typeset in boldface and capitalize the first letter of the first word only. Section numbers to be in boldface roman. 2.1 Sub sub-headings Typeset sub-subheadings in boldface and capitalize the first letter of the first word only. Section numbers to be in roman. 2.2 Numbering and spacing Sections, sub-sections and sub-subsections are numbered in Arabic. Use double spacing before all section headings, and single spacing after section headings. Flush left all paragraphs that follow after section headings. All subsequent paragraphs in the same section must begin indent on the left by 18 pt (0.25). 3. EQUATIONS Displayed equations should be numbered consecutively, with the number set flush right and enclosed in parentheses. The equation numbers should be consecutive within the contribution

(1) Equations should be referred to in abbreviated form, e.g. Eq. (1) or just (1). In multiple-line equations, the number should be given on the last line. Displayed equations are to be centered on the page width. Standard English letters like x are to appear as x (italicized) in the text if they are used as mathematical symbols. Punctuation marks are used at the end of equations if they appear directly in the text. 4. THEOREM ENVIRONMENTS Theorem 4.1. Theorems, lemmas, etc. are set on a separate paragraph, with extra one line space above and below. They are to be numbered consecutively within the section of the paper. Lemma 4.2. Theorems, lemmas, etc. are set on a separate paragraph, with extra one line space above and below. They are to be numbered consecutively within the contribution. 5. ILLUSTRATIONS AND PHOTOGRAPHS Figures are to be inserted in the text nearest their first reference. Figure placements can be either top or bottom. If the author requires the publisher to reduce the figures, ensure that the figures (including letterings and numbers) are large enough to be clearly seen after reduction. Illustrations and photographs in JPEG and GIF files are acceptable. Figures are to be sequentially numbered in Arabic numerals. The caption must be placed below the figure. Typeset in 10 pt Times Roman with baselineskip of 11 pt. Long captions are to be justified by the page-width'. Use double spacing between a caption and the text that follows immediately, e.g. Fig. 1. Previously published material must be accompanied by written permission from the author and publisher.

Fig. 1. If the caption is less than one line then it needs to be centered.

6. TABLES Tables should be inserted in the text as close to the point of reference as possible. Some space should be left above and below the table, e.g. Table 1.
Table 1. The numerical and analytical result for example. Analytical Node 9, u (1.0, 1.0) Node 10, u (1.0, 0.5) Node 11, u (0.5, 1.0) Node 12, u (0.5, 0.5) 1.8037 0.5248 0.4320 1.1870 Lam Method 1.5031 0.4720 0.3851 1.0683 Suggested way 1.5031 0.4720 0.3851 1.0683

Tables should be numbered sequentially in the text in Arabic numerals. Captions are to be centralized above the tables. Typeset tables and captions in 10 pt Times New Roman with baselineskip of 11 pt. Long captions are to be justified by the tablewidth. If tables need to extend over to a second page, the continuation of the table should be preceded by a caption, e.g., Table 1 (Continued). 7. FOOTNOTES Sorry! No footnotes are allowed !!!!!

Acknowledgments This section should come before the References. Funding information may also be included here. Appendix A. Appendix

Appendices should be used only when absolutely necessary. They should come after the References. If there is more than one appendix, number them alphabetically. Number displayed equations occurring in the Appendix in this way, e.g. (A.1), (A.2), etc.
a , b (t ) =
1 a

t b with a, b R , a 0 . a

References The references section should be labeled References and should appear at the end of the paper. Authors should follow a consistent format for the reference entries. The list of references should always be numbered consecutively and include the names of all authors, or editors, year of publication, and name and location of the publisher (see example below). Names of journals and books should use standard abbreviations. If in doubt, one may refer to Mathematical Reviews or Zentrallblatt fr Mathematik for abbreviations to use. Whenever possible, replace all references to papers accepted for publication, preprints or technical reports by the exact name of the journal, the volume, the first and last page numbers and year, if the paper has already been published or accepted for publication. Number citations consecutively in square brackets [1]. The sentence punctuation follows the brackets [2]. Multiple references [2], [3] are each numbered with separate brackets [1][3]. When citing a section in a book, please give the relevant page numbers [2]. In sentences, refer simply to the reference number, as in [3]. Do not use Ref. [3] or reference [3] except at the beginning of a sentence: Reference [3] shows ... . Type the reference list at the end of the paper using the References style. Number footnotes separately in superscripts (Insert | Footnote). 3 Place the actual footnote at the bottom of the column in which it is cited; do not put footnotes in the reference list (endnotes). Use letters for table footnotes (see Table I).

It is recommended that footnotes be avoided (except for the unnumbered footnote of the first page). Instead, try to integrate the footnote information into the text. 5

Please note that the references at the end of this document are in the preferred referencing style. Give all authors names; do not use et al. unless there are six authors or more. Use a space after authors' initials. Papers that have not been published should be cited as unpublished [4]. Papers that have been submitted for publication should be cited as submitted for publication [5]. Papers that have been accepted for publication, but not yet specified for an issue should be cited as to be published [6]. Please give affiliations and addresses for private communications [7].
