questions on paper
guidelines, please contact the conference paper committee as indicated on the conference website.
Information about final paper submission is available from the conference website.
An easy way to comply with the conference paper formatting requirements is to use this document as a template and simply type your text into it.
A. Page Layout
Extended abstract is one to two pages. Your paper must use a page size corresponding to A4 which is 210mm (8.27") wide and 297mm (11.69") long. The margins must be set as follows:
Top = 19mm (0.75")
Bottom = 43mm (1.69")
Left = Right = 14.32mm (0.56") Your paper must be in two column format with a space of 4.22mm (0.17") between columns.
All paragraphs must be indented. All paragraphs must be justified, i.e. both left-justified and right- justified.
A. Text Font of Entire Document
The entire document should be in Times New Roman or Times font. Type 3 fonts must not be used.
Other font types may be used if needed for special purposes.
Recommended font sizes are shown in Table 1.
B. Title and Author Details Title must be in 24 pt Regular font. Author name must be in 11 pt Regular font. Author affiliation must be in 10 pt Italic. Email
address must be in 9 pt Courier Regular font.
TABLE I FONT SIZESFOR PAPERS
Appearance (in Time New Roman or Times)
Regular Bold Italic
table caption (in Small Caps), figure caption, reference item
reference item (partial)
author email address (in Courier), cell in a table
abstract body
abstract heading (also in Bold) level-1 heading (in
Small Caps), paragraph
level-2 heading, level-3 heading, author affiliation author name
All title and author details must be in single-column format and must be centered.
Every word in a title must be capitalized except for short minor words such as
“a”, “an”, “and”, “as”, “at”,
“by”, “for”, “from”, “if”,
“in”, “into”, “on”, “or”, “of”,
“the”, “to”, “with”.
Author details must not show any professional title (e.g. Managing Director), any academic title (e.g. Dr.) or any membership of any professional organization (e.g. Senior Member IEEE).
To avoid confusion, the family name must be written as the last part of each author name (e.g. John A.K. Smith).
Each affiliation must include, at the very least, the name of the company and the name of the country where the author is based (e.g.
Causal Productions Pty Ltd, Australia).
Email address is compulsory for the corresponding author.
C. Content
The abstract should give a clear indication of the objectives, scope, results and conclusion of your work.
Introduction will give a background on the subject.
Materials and methods will be presented as applicable followed by results and
discussion. It is
recommended to limit the number of references to five.
D. Figures and Tables One figure and one table can be included in your extended abstract.
Figures and tables must be centered in the column.
Large figures and tables may span across both columns.
Any table or figure that takes up more than 1 column width must be positioned either at the top or at the bottom of the page.
Graphics may be full color. All colors will be retained on the PDF.
Graphics must not use stipple fill patterns because they may not be reproduced properly.
Please use only SOLID FILL colors which contrast well both on screen and on a black-and-white hardcopy, as shown in Fig. 1.

The version of this template is V2. Most of the formatting instructions in this document have been compiled by Causal Productions from the IEEE LaTeX style files. Causal Productions offers both A4 templates and US Letter templates for LaTeX and Microsoft Word. The LaTeX templates depend on the official IEEEtran.cls and IEEEtran.bst files, whereas the Microsoft Word templates are self-contained.
Causal Productions has used
its best efforts to ensure that the templates have the same appearance.
Causal Productions permits the distribution and revision of these templates on the condition that Causal Productions is credited in the revised template as follows:
“original version of this template was provided by
courtesy of Causal
Productions.
Avoid screen shot and snap shot for tabulation and figures, if so, all figures should be visible and should not be blurred. Tabulation should be editable.
Tables and images can be varied in single and double column format. For small figure you can choose double column format and for bigger table and graph you can choose single column format, shown in figure 1.
E. Math
If you are using Word, use either the Microsoft Equation Editor or the
MathType add-on
(http://www.mathtype.com) for equations in your paper (Insert | Object | Create New | Microsoft Equation or MathType Equation). “Float over text” should not be selected.
F. Units
Use either SI (MKS) or CGS as primary units. (SI
units are strongly
encouraged.) English units may be used as secondary units (in parentheses). This applies to papers in data storage. For example, write
“15 Gb/cm2 (100 Gb/in2).”
An exception is when English units are used as identifiers in trade, such as
“3½ in disk drive.” Avoid combining SI and CGS units, such as current in amperes and magnetic field in oersteds. This often leads to confusion because equations
do not balance
dimensionally. If you must
use mixed units, clearly state the units for each quantity in an equation.
The SI unit for magnetic field strength His A/m.
However, if you wish to use units of T, either refer to magnetic flux density B or magnetic field strength symbolized as µ0H. Use the center dot to separate compound units, e.g.,
“A·m2.”
G. Abbreviations and Acronyms
Define abbreviations and acronyms the first time they are used in the text, even after they have already been defined in the abstract.
Abbreviations such as IES, SI, ac, and dc do not have to be defined. Abbreviations that incorporate periods should not have spaces: write
“C.N.R.S.,” not “C. N. R. S.”
Do not use abbreviations in the title unless they are unavoidable
H. Some Common Mistakes The word “data” is plural, not singular. The subscript for the permeability of vacuum µ0 is zero, not a lowercase letter “o.” The
term for residual
magnetization is
“remanence”; the adjective is
“remanent”; do not write
“remnance” or “remnant.”
Use the word “micrometer”
instead of “micron.” A graph within a graph is an “inset,”
not an “insert.” The word
“alternatively” is preferred to the word “alternately”
(unless you really mean something that alternates).
Use the word “whereas”
instead of “while” (unless you are referring to simultaneous events). Do not use the word “essentially” to mean “approximately” or
“effectively.” Do not use the word “issue” as a euphemism for “problem.” When compositions are not specified, separate chemical symbols by en-dashes; for
example, “NiMn” indicates the intermetallic compound Ni0.5Mn0.5 whereas “Ni–Mn”
indicates an alloy of some composition NixMn1-x. I. Conclusion and Future
Enhancement
A conclusion section is not required. Although a conclusion may review the main points of the paper, do not replicate the abstract as the conclusion. A conclusion might elaborate on the importance of the work or suggest applications and extensions. Include future enhancement.
J. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT S
The heading of the Acknowledgments section and the
References section
must not be numbered.
