Abstract: This template describes the formatting requirements for the 3rd Logistics International
Conference, to be held in Belgrade, Serbia from 25-27 May 2017. Please follow instructions in this

information. An abstract not exceeding 150 words should appear at the top of the first page, after
the title of the paper in a section titled "abstract" (without section number), after the names of the
authors. Do not use “first person” writing style; do not include mathematical expressions; do not
refer to the reference and try to avoid acronyms. Use this document as a template for MS Word,
version 2003 or later. For authors who use MS Word in versions later than MS Word 2007, note
that, because of frequent compatibility issues, papers should be saved as MS Word 2007 document.

2. FIRST LEVEL HEADING
Avoid leaving a heading at the bottom of a page, with the subsequent text starting at the top of
the next page. Please organize your paper using the first and second level headings. Avoid
headings of third or higher levels, third level headings (2.1.1) should be used only exceptionally.
2.1 Second level heading (Cambria 11 pt, Bold, Align left, 12 pt after and before spacing)
Use MS Word Equation editor to type all equations. Mathematical formulas should be centered
and should be numbered consecutively from 1 in parentheses on the far right margin of the
column, as in the following example of equation (1):
J
K
 x
ijtk
k  K
t  P i  I
(1)
j 1 k 1
All variables: a, b, ... , x, y, z, should be set in italic. Be sure that the symbols in your equation have
been defined before the equation appears, or immediately following.
2.2 Second level heading
Restrict figures to the page borders, with center alignment, 12 pt before and 6 pt after spacing.
Figure 1. Cambria font, 11 pt letter size, centered, 6 pt before and 12 pt after spacing
If possible, do not assemble figures at the back of your article, but place them as close as possible
to where they are mentioned in the main text. The figures should be numbered consecutively
with captions (in Arabic numbers).
The captions should appear below graphical objects. The captions are the part of the text and not
of the figures. The figures are to be inserted in their proper place throughout the paper and not
to be grouped together. Please use only drawings and photographs of reasonable quality.
2.3 Second level heading
All tables should be incorporated into main body of the text and must be centered in the page
and numbered consecutively (in Arabic numbers). Place the tables as close as possible to where
they are mentioned in the main text.
The table headings should be placed above the table, as shown in this template. The width of all
lines in tables including all borders should be 1/2 pt. Text and numbers in tables should be
typewritten in Cambria font, with letter size not smaller than 8 pt and not larger than 11 pt.

It is recommended to avoid footnotes. Instead, try to integrate the footnote information into the
text. Define abbreviations and acronyms the first time they are used in the text. Do not use
abbreviations in the title unless they are unavoidable. The SI units are strongly encouraged.
The references to relevant literature must be consistent with the examples at the end of these
instructions. The references should be listed in alphabetical order and numbered. Authors
should ensure that every reference in the text appears in the list of references and vice versa.
Indicate references in the text by Coelho et al. (2014) if there are three or more authors, or Gillet
and Miller (1974) if there are two authors, or Harris (1915) if there is only one author. Some
examples of how your references should be listed are given at the end of this template in the
‘References’ section, which will allow you to assemble your reference list according to the
correct format and font size.
Please note that all references listed here must be directly cited in the body of the text. Please
give the proper reference to relevant related work.
