Preparing Abstracts for the 13th
Mini-Symposium

Firstname DOKTORAND

Advisor: Firstname ADVISOR (without “Dr.”)

I.Introduction

This style sheet is based on the original work of János Márkus, slightly updated by Gergely Pintér.

The Microsoft Office (Word) example file of the 13thMini-Symposiumcontaining the styles has been updated[1]. Please, use this “skeleton” file (ms06skel.doc) to prepare your abstract. It is available at the official webpage of the symposium.

The length of the Mini-Symposium papers is 2 pages. No exceptions are allowed. Do not number the pages of your paper and do not use headers or footers.

Please, use the styles in your paper as in this document. Be careful copying materials from other office files. Please, do not modify the styles, if you have any important comments, contact István Pilászy (pila at mit.bme.hu).

II.Helpful hints

Numbering of sections and subsections is automatic. Sections are numbered with roman numbers, subsections with capital letters. Avoid using more than two level of section hierarchy in you document. Section References (and Acknowledgement if exists) is not numbered.

A.Figures, Tables

Include your figures into the section in which you are referring to it (e.g. Fig. 1). If your figure is small, you may embed it into the paragraph at the margin to save same space.

Figure 1: A wrong system design

Tables are similar, except that the captions are above them.

B.Equations

Number your equations if you are referring to them (…as it is in Eq. (1)):

.(1)

Let's try another indented paragraph and then another equation:

,(2)
where the paragraph is continuous.

C.Citation and Bibliography

Here are some citation and bibliography entries. Citation of a book [1], a paper in a journal [2], a paper in a conference proceedings [3] and a Ph.D. thesis [4]. If you want to add an URL, you can do it, like in this manual [5]. Other citations are similar.

For a journal paper, first come the authors, the title between quotation marks, the journal name with italic font, then vol(num):p–p, month, year. In English, the punctuation is before the “unquote,” as in this example. Use - (hyphen), – (n-dash) and — (m-dash) correctly.

D.Itemize

Please, use the ms05_itemize style for itemizing, because

  • it is easy;
  • it looks exactly the same in every abstract;
  • it is good;
  • and its line spacing is single.

III.Submission of the Full Paper

A.Microsoft Word

Due to the problems encountered in previous years, this year participants should generate pdf files from their document. This is relatively easy. Detailed instructions are available at please refer to them. For security reasons, we ask participants to submit an doc file as well.

B.LaTeX

Refer to the other example made in LaTeX.

IV.Conclusion

Have a wonderful time preparing the paper…
