Your Title - The Paper Title Could be More Specific than General
Abstract—These instructions give you guidelines for preparing papers for IEEE Transactions and Journals. Use this document as a template if you are using Microsoft Word 6.0 or later. Otherwise, use this document as an instruction set. The electronic file of your paper will be formatted further at IEEE. Paper titles should be written in uppercase and lowercase letters, not all uppercase. Avoid writing long formulas with subscripts in the title; short formulas that identify the elements are fine (e.g., "Nd–Fe–B"). Do not write “(Invited)” in the title. Full names of authors are preferred in the author field but are not required. Put a space between authors’ initials. The abstract must be a concise yet comprehensive reflection of what is in your article. In particular, the abstract must be self-contained, without abbreviations, footnotes, or references. It should be a microcosm of the full article. The abstract must be between 150–250 words. Be sure that you adhere to these limits; otherwise, you will need to edit your abstract accordingly. The abstract must be written as one paragraph and should not contain displayed mathematical equations or tabular material. The abstract should include three or four different keywords or phrases, as this will help readers to find it. It is important to avoid over-repetition of such phrases as this can result in a page being rejected by search engines. Ensure that your abstract reads well and is grammatically correct.
- The abstract should summarize the approach and the article's major scientific contributions, emphasizing the importance and significance of the results. The abstract should not contain literature citations or allusions to the illustrations.
- Define all non-standard symbols and abbreviations. Use running text only and avoid equations

INTRODUCTION
The Blockchain is a trending technology today. It was originally introduced as an implementation…..
“YOUR SUMMARIES from the Annotated Bibliography Assignment COME HERE and then re-organise”
CSU expect 12-15 references for this section.
The Introduction section should contain literature citations to discuss other similar proposals.
Below is the rough guide to follow the structure of the Bibliography (Introduction). Please also follow the Introduction section of the attached papers from HD students of this subject. Rough Guide to the Structure of the Annotated Bibliography (Introduction), as follows:
Background
Motivation
The main contributions of this paper
Structure of paper
Example
* PS – You should not write any of these questions in your assignment, this is just a guide .
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The methods should be adequately explained, how the research was conducted.
What are you going to propose to solve the problem that is existing in the current/existing solutions; (Mention the initial solution here). You can use a diagram to clarify that with writing text.
How you are going to do your research (step by step methodology is needed).
Data Collection
Events of large flood information collected ……….
B. Data Inclusion Criteria
Certain attributes such as reference number…….
Analysis of the raw data
Results
Your results should be included here.
4. Discussion
“Some of Your Critiques from the Annotated Bibliography Assignment could come here and then re-organise.”
The discussion is the productive, creative and innovative part of writing a paper. It is the thinking about the implications of the results that you got, and the literature search for a comparable or contradictive paper that you learn something.
- You should not refer tables or figures here, instead only the overall results without referring figure or table numbers.
- You should indicate how your results relate to expectations and to earlier research?
Reviewers may look => Are the claims in this section supported by the results, do they seem reasonable? Have you indicated how the results relate to expectations and to earlier research?
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
Please write in Bullet form with sub-titles
Example:
Conclusion
Please write the key conclusions of your research.
- Please do not use citations.
Example
In this work, we propose the FogBus framework that can integrate different IoT-enabled systems to both Fog and Cloud infrastructures. The framework is lightweight and can harness both edge and remote resources for IoT application deployment, monitoring and management. FogBus is developed in cross platform programming languages that helps to overcome the heterogeneity of the infrastructure during application execution and end-to-end interaction. Additionally, the FogBus framework functions as a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) model for integrated Fog Cloud environment that not only assists application developers to build different types of IoT applications but also supports users to customize the services, and service providers to manage the resources according to the context of the system. Since some IoT-enabled systems such as health monitoring and utility service metering deal with sensitive data, FogBus applies authentication for data privacy and Blockchain for data integrity. To procure data transfer across less secure network, encryption techniques are applied in FogBus. Based on the principles of FogBus, a cost efficient prototype for Sleep Apnea analysis is also developed in this work. Applying different FogBus settings on the prototype, it is demonstrated that FogBus performs well even when large number of tasks are required to be processed, the execution of tasks are latency sensitive, network resources are not abundant, energy usage is restricted and computing instances are not resource enriched.
Appendixes, if needed, appear before the acknowledgment.
Most of the mathematical explanation should go to the Appendix section. Too many equations distract the flow of the work. Qualitative descriptions or graphs are preferred mechanism for explaining relationships. Derivation of the formula should go to the Appendix.
