Title, Author, and Authors' Affiliations
Title of paper: 18 point size, bold, cap/lower case, centered; use capitalization rules for headline style (title case), i.e., nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs, and subordinating conjunctions (if, because, as, that, etc.) are capitalized. Articles (a, an, the), coordinating conjunctions (and, but, or, for, nor), and prepositions, regardless of length, are lowercased. Place the title 3/4 inch (20 mm) below the top margin of the typing area (i.e., for U.S. letter-size paper, approx. 1 ¾ inches from the top edge of the paper, first page only). Leave one blank line of space (18 point) below the title line. Use the full title of the paper. Please look at the sample on page 10.
Author(s) of the paper: 14 point size, cap/lower case, centered. Leave one blank line of space (18 point) below the author names. Include all author names in full. Take care with spelling of coauthor names and initials.
Author Affiliation, Telephone, and Email: 10 point size, italic, cap/lower case, centered. Include only the lead author’s phone (required) and fax number (optional), and email (required) at bottom of affiliations block. Show affiliations and complete addresses, including postal or zip codes. If more than one affiliation, relate each name to the affiliation by use of a superscripted number. Add a superscripted letter if the author is affiliated with more than one department within the same institution (see sample on page 10). You do not need to superscript authors if all authors have the same affiliation and address. Leave one blank line (18 point) below the author addresses.
