Abstract This electronic document is a “live” template and already defines the components of your paper [title, text, heads,etc.] in its style sheet.
Key Words: component; formatting; style; styling; insert (key words)1.

Introduction

This template, modified in MS Word 2016 and saved as a
“Word 97-2003 Document” for the PC, provides authors withmost of the formatting specifications needed for preparing
electronic versions of their papers. All standard paper
components have been specified for three reasons: (1) ease ofuse when formatting individual papers, (2) automatic
compliance to electronic requirements that facilitate theconcurrent or later production of electronic products, and (3)conformity of style throughout a conference proceedings.
Margins, column widths, line spacing, and type styles are builtin; examples of the type styles are provided throughout thisdocument and are identified in italic type, within parentheses,
following the example. Some components, such as multileveled 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.

Ease of Use

2.1 Selecting a Template (Heading 2)First, confirm that you have the correct template for yourpaper size. This template has been tailored for output on the A4paper size. If you are using US letter-sized paper, please close
this file and download the file “MSW_USltr_format”.
2.2 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 areprescribed; 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 andothers are deliberate, using specifications that anticipate yourpaper as one part of the entire proceedings, and not as anindependent document. Please do not revise any of the current
designations.

Prepare Your Paper Before Styling

Before you begin to format your paper, first write and savethe 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 ofpagination anywhere in the paper. Do not number text headsthe 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:
3.1 Abbreviations and Acronyms
Define abbreviations and acronyms the first time they areused 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 orheads unless they are unavoidable.
3.2 Units• Use either SI (MKS) or CGS as primary units. (SI units
are encouraged.) English units may be used as secondaryunits (in parentheses). An exception would be the use ofEnglish units as identifiers in trade, such as “3.5-inch
disk drive.”• Avoid combining SI and CGS units, such as current inamperes 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 ofunits: “Wb/m2” or “webers per square meter,” not“webers/m2.” Spell units when they appear in text: “...afew henries,” not “...a few H.”• Use a zero before decimal points: “0.25,” not “.25.” Use“cm3,” not “cc.” (bullet list)

3.3 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 theTimes 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 yourpaper is styled.
Number equations consecutively. Equation numbers, withinparentheses, are to position flush right, as in (1), using a righttab 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 aminus sign. Punctuate equations with commas or periods when
they are part of a sentence, as ina+b =()Note that the equation is centered using a center tab stop. Besure that the symbols in your equation have been defined before
or immediately following the equation. Use “Eq. (1)” except at
the beginning of a sentence: “Equation (1) is ...”
3.4 Some Common Mistakes• The word “data” is plural, not singular.
• The subscript for the permeability of vacuum 0, andother 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 nameis cited, such as a title or full quotation. When quotation
marks are used, instead of a bold or italic typeface, tohighlight a word or phrase, punctuation should appear
outside of the quotation marks. A parenthetical phraseor statement at the end of a sentence is punctuatedoutside of the closing parenthesis (like this). (Aparenthetical sentence is punctuated within theparentheses.)• A graph within a graph is an “inset,” not an “insert.” Theword alternatively is preferred to the word “alternately”(unless you really mean something that alternates).
• Do not use the word “essentially”“approximately” or “effectively.”

tomean• In your paper title, if the words “that uses” canaccurately replace the word using, capitalize the “u”; ifnot, 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 theword 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 theabbreviation “e.g.” means “for example.”An excellent style manual for science writers is 7).

Using the Template

After the text edit has been completed, the paper is ready forthe template. Duplicate the template file by using the Save As
command, and use the naming convention prescribed by yourconference for the name of your paper. In this newly createdfile, 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.
4.1 Authors and Affiliations
The template is designed so that author affiliations are notrepeated each time for multiple authors of the same affiliation.
Please keep your affiliations as succinct as possible (forexample, do not differentiate among departments of the sameorganization). This template was designed for two affiliations.
1) For author/s of only one affiliation (Heading 3): Tochange the default, adjust the template as follows.
a) Selection (Heading 4): Highlight all author andaffiliation lines.
b) Change number of columns: Select the Columns iconfrom the MS Word Standard toolbar and then select “1Column” from the selection palette.
c) Deletion: Delete the author and affiliation lines for thesecond affiliation.
4.2 Identify the Headings
Headings, or heads, are organizational devices that guide thereader through your paper. There are two types: component
heads and text heads.
Component heads identify the different components of yourpaper and are not topically subordinate to each other. Examples
include Acknowledgements and References, and for these, thecorrect style to use is “Heading 5.” Use “figure caption” foryour Figure captions, and “table head” for your table title. Runin 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, hierarchicalbasis. For example, the paper title is the primary text headbecause all subsequent material relates and elaborates on thisone 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 nosubheads should be introduced. Styles named “Heading 1,”“Heading 2,” “Heading 3,” and “Heading 4” are prescribed.
4.3 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 acrossboth columns. Figure captions should be below the figures;table heads should appear above the tables. Insert figures andtables after they are cited in the text. Use the abbreviation “Fig.
1,” even at the beginning of a sentence.

Sample of a Table footnote. (Table footnote)

We suggest that you use a text box to insert a graphic(which is ideally a 300 dpi resolution TIFF or EPS file withall fonts embedded) because this method is somewhat morestable than directly inserting a picture.
To have non-visible rules on your frame, use theMSWord “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 Figurelabels. Use words rather than symbols or abbreviations whenwriting 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 withunits. 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.”

Acknowledgments (Heading 5)
The preferred spelling of the word “acknowledgment” inAmerica 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 unnumberedfootnote on the first page.

The template will number citations consecutively withinbrackets 1). The sentence punctuation follows the bracket 2).
Refer simply to the reference number, as in 2) or in Ref. 3) At
the beginning of a sentence: “Reference 3) was the first ...”
Number footnotes separately in superscripts. Place theactual footnote at the bottom of the column in which it was cited.
Do not put footnotes in the reference list. Use letters for tablefootnotes.
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 thefirst word in a paper title, except for proper nouns and element
symbols.
For papers published in translation journals, please give theEnglish citation first, followed by the original foreign-language
citation 6).
