2. Title, Affiliations and Corresponding Author
First page of a manuscript should contain the (a) Title (16 font size with bold), full name of the (b) Author and Co-authors (14 font size) along with the (c) affiliation/postal address of institution (12 font size) where the work was carried out. The (d) email of corresponding author should be correct and up-to-date (10 font size). Also, provide corresponding author phone or mobile number in affiliation section. Email address of each author is preferable. Title should be concise and informative as titles are often used in information-retrieval systems and represent scientific findings of an article. A title should be understandable to non-specialist readers; it should not be more than three simplified and short lines.

3. Abstract and Keywords
A concise and factual Abstract (11 font size & in italic form) is required (maximum length 1250 words if necessary, but preferably limited to 750 words only). The abstract should state clearly purpose/background of the research, the principal results and major conclusions; it should convey the concept to non-specialist readers. Also, non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided, if essential must be defined within the abstract first. An abstract is often presented separately from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. The authors should provide 5-7 firmly established keywords below the abstract, these key words should not be from the title words. Each keywords first letter would be capitalized.

12. Figure Quality and Images
If your work is created in Microsoft Office applications (word, power point, excel) please supply 'as is' in the native document file format. If other application use for preparing images or graph or vector or lines or drawings; please 'save as' or convert the image in PDF or JPEG or TIFF where preferable resolution is 300 dpi. Color, gray scale or black-white picture is acceptable. Editorial office might ask for original/source/native files of figure.
PLEASE DO NOT- Supply files or images which are optimized for screen use only, which typically have low number of pixels and limited set of colors. Do not supply files or images which are too low in resolution; and any graphics should be proportionately large so that concept could be understandable and meaningful for readers. Do not integrate several picture into a single one, rather create several individual figures.
Figure Captions: Authors should ensure that each illustration has a caption. Supply captions separately, where necessary attached to the figure. A caption should comprise a brief title (not on the figure itself, unless vey necessary) and a description of the illustration.

Section B. Submission Checklist for Authors
Ensure the following items are present in your submitted manuscript; review and publication will be delayed unless you provide following information:

Section C. Information for Authors
Submission and Acceptance of an Article
1. Publication Ethics
Authors are requested to read and understand about the ethical matters of journal publications. More information can be found from http://publicationethics.org/.
2. Author Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest
Authors have to add a section in article to declare funding sources (i.e., projects, university funds, ministry, research funds etc.) for the works of an article. Moreover, if there is any conflicts of interest about the research findings that might arise from interpretation of results should be declared by the authors in the article. Additionally, if author discover a significant error or inaccuracy in a published article, then it is responsibility of author to promptly notify the subject matter to editor and publisher of journal and cooperate substantially to correct an article.
Conflict of Interest (COI) exist when there is a divergence between an individual’s private interests (competing interests) and his or her responsibilities to scientific and publishing activities such that a reasonable observer might wonder if the individual’s behavior or judgment was motivated by considerations of his or her competing interests. In case of Journal BiNET, COI exists when a participant in the publication process (author, peer reviewer or editor) has a competing interest that could unduly influence (or be reasonably seen to do so) his or her responsibilities in the publication process. Among those responsibilities are academic honesty, unbiased conduct and reporting of research and integrity of decisions or judgments. The publication process includes the submission of manuscripts, peer review, editorial decisions and communication between authors, reviewers and editors. Many kinds of competing interests are possible such as financial ties, academic commitments (i.e., strong belief may bias a research and its results!), personal relationships, political and religious belief and institutional affiliations. Journals often have policies for managing financial COI, mostly based on the untested assumption that financial ties have an especially powerful influence over publication decisions and may not be apparent unless they are made explicit. However, other competing interests can be just as damaging and just as hidden to most participants, and so must also be managed (text adapted from http://www.wame.org/).
3. Authorship and Contributions
All authors should have adequate contribution to the works or research in terms of conception, design, data collection, analysis, interpretation, drafting, intellectual standards, final approval, critical revision and key findings of a submitted manuscript; and listed and describe roles properly with affiliations and attributions.

4. Human, Animal Rights and Clinical Trails
All authors should seek proper approval against every works or actions or clinical trials from suitable/ethical/medical/govt./university/research station authority for conducting experiments/trials with animals and human subjects. This approval should be mentioned in the methodology section of an article and that consent was obtained for experimentation as and where necessary from relevant authority.
5. Submission Declaration and Cover Letter
Duplicate and multiple submissions are prohibited. If authors submit a manuscript whose basis is any of his previously published works, require to mention and cite it properly with the submitted manuscript. Submission of same article to more than one journal is unethical and unacceptable. Similarly, submission of similar type of works with identical text and parameters should be highly avoidable by author (s). Manuscripts that have been published (and or under processing and review) in English or other language elsewhere cannot be submitted for publication except in the form of an abstract or as part of academic thesis or academic lectures. A Cover Letter should be included with each submission to declare originality, authorship, type of article, background information and corresponding author.
6. Originality, Plagiarism and Academic Misconducts
We are committed to publish articles which are based on original materials. A manuscript or some part(s) of it neither submitted/published elsewhere nor is under review/processing for publication elsewhere, may considered as an invalid or incomplete manuscript. On the other hand, manuscripts which are found to be plagiarized from other sources will be rejected for processing and publication and may be subjected to rectify by iThenticate. Plagiarism and or copy-paste are strictly prohibited. Furthermore, any fabrication and falsification of article content is prohibited which extendedly considered for repeated content, image manipulation, data fabrication, faulty personal details, failure to abide by journal policy, unethical or erroneous papers etc. In case of those issues for a published article, once detected or reported, that article will be removed from systems with notifications to authors and or without any concern of authors.
7. Authorship and Affiliations changes
