Abstract: This electronic document is a “live” template and already defines the components of
your paper [title, text, heads, etc.] in its style sheet. *CRITICAL: Do Not Use Symbols,
Special Characters, or Math in Paper Title or Abstract.

Keywords: Component; formatting; style; styling; insert (key words)

1. Introduction (Heading 1)
This template, modified in MS Word 2007 and saved as a “Word 97-2003 Document” for
the PC, provides authors with most of the formatting specifications needed for preparing
electronic versions of their papers. All standard paper components have been specified for
three reasons: (1) ease of use when formatting individual papers, (2) automatic compliance to
electronic requirements that facilitate the concurrent or later production of electronic products,
and (3) conformity of style throughout a conference proceedings. Margins, column widths, line
spacing, and type styles are built-in; examples of the type styles are provided throughout this
document and are identified in italic type, within parentheses, following the example. Some
components, such as multi-leveled equations, graphics, and tables are not prescribed, although
the various table text styles are provided. The formatter will need to create these components,
incorporating the applicable criteria that follow.

2. Ease of Use
A. Selecting a Template (Heading 2)
First, confirm that you have the correct template for your paper size. This template has been
tailored for output on the A4 paper size. If you are using US letter-sized paper, please close this
file and download the file “MSW_USltr_format”.

B. Maintaining the Integrity of the Specifications

The template is used to format your paper and style the text. All margins, column widths,
line spaces, and text fonts are prescribed; please do not alter them. You may note peculiarities.
For example, the head margin in this template measures proportionately more than is
customary. This measurement and others are deliberate, using specifications that anticipate
your paper as one part of the entire proceedings, and not as an independent document. Please
do not revise any of the current designations.

3. Prepare Your Paper Before Styling

Before you begin to format your paper, first write and save the content as a separate text
file. Keep your text and graphic files separate until after the text has been formatted and styled.
Do not use hard tabs, and limit use of hard returns to only one return at the end of a paragraph.
Do not add any kind of pagination anywhere in the paper. Do not number text heads-the
template will do that for you.
Finally, complete content and organizational editing before formatting. Please take note of
the following items when proofreading spelling and grammar:

A. Abbreviations and Acronyms

Define abbreviations and acronyms the first time they are used in the text, even after they
have been defined in the abstract. Abbreviations such as IEEE, SI, MKS, CGS, sc, dc, and rms
do not have to be defined. Do not use abbreviations in the title or heads unless they are
unavoidable.

B. Units
 Use either SI (MKS) or CGS as primary units. (SI units are encouraged.) English units
may be used as secondary units (in parentheses). An exception would be the use of
English units as identifiers in trade, such as “3.5-inch 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
that you use in an equation.
 Do not mix complete spellings and abbreviations of units: “Wb/m2” or “webers per
square meter,” not “webers/m2.” Spell units when they appear in text: “...a few
henries,” not “...a few H.”
Identify applicable sponsor/s here. If no sponsors, delete this text box (sponsors).
 Use a zero before decimal points: “0.25,” not “.25.” Use “cm3,” not “cc.” (bullet list)

C. Equations
The equations are an exception to the prescribed specifications of this template. You will
need to determine whether or not your equation should be typed using either the Times New
Roman or the Symbol font (please no other font). To create multileveled equations, it may be
necessary to treat the equation as a graphic and insert it into the text after your paper is styled.
Number equations consecutively. Equation numbers, within parentheses, are to position
flush right, as in (1), using a right tab stop. To make your equations more compact, you may
use the solidus ( / ), the exp function, or appropriate exponents. Italicize Roman symbols for
quantities and variables, but not Greek symbols. Use a long dash rather than a hyphen for a
minus sign. Punctuate equations with commas or periods when they are part of a sentence, as
in
A+b= y (1)
Note that the equation is centered using a center tab stop. Be sure that the symbols in your
equation have been defined before or immediately following the equation. Use “(1),” not “Eq.
(1)” or “equation (1),” except at the beginning of a sentence: “Equation (1) is ...”

D. Some Common Mistakes

 The word “data” is plural, not singular.
 The subscript for the permeability of vacuum 0, and other common scientific
constants, is zero with subscript formatting, not a lowercase letter “o.”
 In American English, commas, semi-/colons, periods, question and exclamation marks
are located within quotation marks only when a complete thought or name is cited, such
as a title or full quotation. When quotation marks are used, instead of a bold or italic
typeface, to highlight a word or phrase, punctuation should appear outside of the
quotation marks. A parenthetical phrase or statement at the end of a sentence is
punctuated outside of the closing parenthesis (like this). (A parenthetical sentence is
punctuated within the parentheses.)
  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).
 Do not use the word “essentially” to mean “approximately” or “effectively.”
 In your paper title, if the words “that uses” can accurately replace the word using,
capitalize the “u”; if not, keep using lower-cased.
 Be aware of the different meanings of the homophones “affect” and “effect,”
“complement” and “compliment,” “discreet” and “discrete,” “principal” and
“principle.”
 Do not confuse “imply” and “infer.”
 The prefix “non” is not a word; it should be joined to the word it modifies, usually
without a hyphen.
 There is no period after the “et” in the Latin abbreviation “et al.”
 The abbreviation “i.e.” means “that is,” and the abbreviation “e.g.” means “for
example.”

4. Using the Template

After the text edit has been completed, the paper is ready for the template. Duplicate the
template file by using the Save As command, and use the naming convention prescribed by
your conference for the name of your paper. In this newly created file, highlight all of the
contents and import your prepared text file. You are now ready to style your paper; use the
scroll down window on the left of the MS Word Formatting toolbar.

A. Authors and Affiliations

The template is designed so that author affiliations are not repeated each time for multiple
authors of the same affiliation. Please keep your affiliations as succinct as possible (for
example, do not differentiate among departments of the same organization). This template was
designed for two affiliations.
1. For author/s of only one affiliation (Heading 3): To change the default, adjust the
template as follows.
a. Selection (Heading 4): Highlight all author and affiliation lines.
b. Change number of columns: Select the Columns icon from the MS Word Standard
toolbar and then select “1 Column” from the selection palette.
c. Deletion: Delete the author and affiliation lines for the second affiliation.
2. For author/s of more than two affiliations: To change the default, adjust the template as
follows.
a. Selection: Highlight all author and affiliation lines.
b. Change number of columns: Select the “Columns” icon from the MS Word Standard
toolbar and then select “1 Column” from the selection palette.
c. Highlight author and affiliation lines of affiliation 1 and copy this selection.
d. Formatting: Insert one hard return immediately after the last character of the last
affiliation line. Then paste down the copy of affiliation 1. Repeat as necessary for
each additional affiliation.
e. Reassign number of columns: Place your cursor to the right of the last character of
the last affiliation line of an even numbered affiliation (e.g., if there are five
affiliations, place your cursor at end of fourth affiliation). Drag the cursor up to
highlight all of the above author and affiliation lines. Go to Column icon and select
“2 Columns”. If you have an odd number of affiliations, the final affiliation will be
centered on the page; all previous will be in two columns.

B. Identify the Headings

 Headings, or heads, are organizational devices that guide the reader through your paper.
There are two types: component heads and text heads.
Component heads identify the different components of your paper and are not topically
subordinate to each other. Examples include ACKNOWLEDGMENTS and REFERENCES,
and for these, the correct style to use is “Heading 5.” Use “figure caption” for your Figure
captions, and “table head” for your table title. Run-in heads, such as “Abstract,” will require
you to apply a style (in this case, italic) in addition to the style provided by the drop down
menu to differentiate the head from the text.
Text heads organize the topics on a relational, hierarchical basis. For example, the paper
title is the primary text head because all subsequent material relates and elaborates on this one
topic. If there are two or more sub-topics, the next level head (uppercase Roman numerals)
should be used and, conversely, if there are not at least two sub-topics, then no subheads
should be introduced. Styles named “Heading 1,” “Heading 2,” “Heading 3,” and “Heading 4”
are prescribed.

C. Figures and Tables

Positioning Figures and Tables: Place figures and tables at the top and bottom of columns.
Avoid placing them in the middle of columns. Large figures and tables may span across both
columns. Figure captions should be below the figures; table heads should appear above the
tables. Insert figures and tables after they are cited in the text. Use the abbreviation “Fig. 1,”
even at the beginning of a sentence.

We suggest that you use a text box to insert a graphic

(which is ideally a 300 dpi resolution TIFF or EPS file
with all fonts embedded) because this method is somewhat
more stable than directly inserting a picture.
To have non-visible rules on your frame, use the MSWord
“Format” pull-down menu, select Text Box > Colors and
Lines to choose No Fill and No Line.

Figure Labels: Use 8 point Times New Roman for Figure labels. Use words rather than
symbols or abbreviations when writing Figure axis labels to avoid confusing the reader. As an
example, write the quantity “Magnetization,” or “Magnetization, M,” not just “M.” If including
units in the label, present them within parentheses. Do not label axes only with units. In the
example, write “Magnetization (A/m)” or “Magnetization (A ( m(1),” not just “A/m.” Do not
label axes with a ratio of quantities and units. For example, write “Temperature (K),” not
“Temperature/K.”

5. Acknowledgment
The preferred spelling of the word “acknowledgment” in America is without an “e” after
the “g.” Avoid the stilted expression “one of us (R. B. G.) thanks ...”. Instead, try “R. B. G.
thanks...”. Put sponsor acknowledgments in the unnumbered footnote on the first page.

6. References
 The template will number citations consecutively within brackets [1]. The sentence
punctuation follows the bracket [2]. 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] was the
first ...”
Number footnotes separately in superscripts. Place the actual footnote at the bottom of the
column in which it was cited. Do not put footnotes in the reference list. Use letters for table
footnotes.
Unless there are six authors or more give all authors’ names; do not use “et al.”. Papers that
have not been published, even if they have been submitted for publication, should be cited as
“unpublished” [4]. Papers that have been accepted for publication should be cited as “in press”
[5]. Capitalize only the first word in a paper title, except for proper nouns and element
symbols.
For papers published in translation journals, please give the English citation first, followed
by the original foreign-language citation [6].
