The authors can upload the abstract as formatted MS Word file. In that case the
author should upload the “CAMERA READY” abstract in
1. Portable Document Format (PDF) with resolution 600 dpi at least,
2. MS Word file (DOC),
via on-line form at the conference web page till April 30, 2012. Two files (PDF and
DOC) for each abstract are required. The name of the first author will identify the
files i.e. “Fuk_T_abstract.pdf” and “Fuk_T_abstract.doc”.
Publishers only accept MS Word files compatible with MS Word 97. Abstracts
written in MS Word of version higher than MS Word 97 have to be saved as
“Document for Word 97-2003”.
The abstracts must be written in English. Use common technical terms and
Microsoft Windows Spelling and Grammar Tools.
For the keywords, select up to 6 key terms for easy identification of your
contribution's subject.
Begin the abstract below the keywords. The abstract summarizes key findings in
the contribution. Length of the abstract is limited to one page only. The abstract
should not have headers, footers, or page numbers. It should be in a one-column
format.
If necessary to use references note them in the text by a sequence number/numbers
in square brackets [1, 3, 5-7] and cite them at the end of the text. List references in
numerical order and enclose the reference number in square brackets.
Use Times New Roman font to avoid font errors.

FORMATTING OF ABSTRACT’S COMPONENTS
3.1 Title
Center the contribution title at the top of the page in 14 pt. bold. Only the first word,
proper nouns, and acronyms are capitalized. Keep titles brief and descriptive. Spell
out acronyms unless they are widely known. Avoid starting with articles or
prepositions, e.g., “The study of … ,” or, “On the ….”
3.2 Author affiliations
The author list is in 10 pt. regular, centered. Omit titles and degrees such as Dr.,
Prof., Ph.D., etc. The list of affiliations follows. Each author affiliation should be
clearly noted by a letter printed as superscript. Each author affiliation is in 9 pt.
italic, centered.
3.3 Text
Text is 10 point and justified. Each sentence ends with a period.
3.4 Special signs
Special signs, for example, α β γ μ Δ ε λ Ω () ≥ ± Γ, should always be written in with
the fonts Times New Roman or Symbol.
3.5 Acknowledgements and References headings
Headings are 10 pt. bold capitals, centered. Do not number the headings.
3.6 Mathematical Equations
If necessary to use an Equation in the abstract, the Equation should be centered.
Center equations in a line through tab stop set at 6 cm, type centered. Place equation
number in parentheses at the right-hand margin of the line through tab stop set at
12 cm, type right-justified. Use Times New Roman font in your math equations.
Identify equation in the text by inserting Eq. before the number.

In-line math of simple fractions should use parentheses to avoid ambiguity, for
example, between 1/(n + 1) and 1/n + 1. Fractions such as 12 are better placed in this
form (vertical fraction with reduced size). Summations and integrals placed within
text such as
x
0 sin( 12  ) d should have limits placed to the right of the symbol to
reduce white space between lines. Use MS Word Equation Editor 2.0 or 3.0.
Recommended mathematical element sizes can be found in Table 3.

3.7 Figures
If necessary to supply the abstract with figures (pictures, photographs, drawings,
graphs, etc) include the figures directly into the document as standalone objects. Do
not draw figures directly into the text. Do not supply figures with floating objects
(text frames, lines, etc). Insert figures with Insert command and not with Link to file
command. Please make sure that all the objects inserted into the text are actually
embedded in your file and not just linked to other files on your hard disk. Place
figures as closely as possible to point in the text where they are referenced. Identify
figures in the text by inserting Fig. before the number. Figures should not go beyond
the printing area. They must not be inserted as floating objects, insert figures as
objects that are fixed in the text and follow the text.
Photographs should be scanned in and placed in the text just as other figures.
Fig. 1. Times New Roman, font size 8 pt.
Fig. 2. Times New Roman, font size 8 pt.
Figures have to be made in high quality, which is suitable for reproduction and print.
For reproduction with aspect ratio 1:1 optimal resolution for Black and White
figures (1-bit, line drawing) is 600-1200 dpi and for Greyscale figures (8-bit,
halftone) is 300 dpi. Colour photographs and figures must be converted into
greyscale ones. In case of figure scan put black paper under style sheet the text from
underside not to appear.
3.8 Tables
Tables should be centered and numbered consecutively. Tables should be placed in
the text close to where they are first mentioned. The authors must use MS Word’s
Table editor to insert tables. The authors must not import tables from MS Excel or
other spreadsheet applications. A single MS Word table should contain whole
content for the table. Position tables in the text so as page break not to be located
within the table. The authors should use horizontal lines to delimit the top and
bottom of the table and column headings (Table 3). Detailed explanations or table
footnotes should be typed directly beneath the table. Font size of the text in table
cells is 8 points.
Table head should begin with the word “Table” followed by the table number and a
period. Font size is 8 points and alignment centered. Table head should be placed
above the table as shown in Table 3. If needed soft-returns (Shift + Enter key)
should be used for line breaks within a single paragraph. Append one empty row to
the table bottom (Table 3) to separate the table from the following text.
