We attempt in FIS to provide a standard format for all papers. This format is predicated on the idea that:
FIS papers have a standard title format (the format of this section's title is an example). The title box is an HTML table. The HTML code is:
<table border="4" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr><td width="1%"><img src="fislogo.gif" border="0"></td> <td width="99%"> <center><p><font size=4 FACE="Times New Roman"> <b>YOUR TITLE GOES HERE IN ALL CAPS</b></center></td></tr> <tr><td><p><center><font size=4 FACE="Times New Roman"><b>MONTH, DAY, YEAR FORMAT</b></center></td> <td><font size=4 FACE="Times New Roman"><center><p><b>AUTHOR #1 NAME AND AFFILIATION<br> AUTHOR #2 NAME AND AFFILIATION, etc.</b></center></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2"><font size=4 FACE="Times New Roman"><center><p><b>ABSTRACT</b> <p></center></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2"><font size=4 FACE="Times New Roman"> <b>TEXT OF THE ABSTRACT GOES HERE</b></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2"><center><b><font size=4 FACE="Times New Roman">CONTENTS</b></center> <ol> <li><a href="#s1"><font size=4 FACE="Times New Roman">INTRODUCTION</a> <li><a href="#s2"><font size=4 FACE="Times New Roman">SECTION 2 HEADING</a> <li><a href="#s3"><font size=4 FACE="Times New Roman">SECTION 3 HEADING</a> <li><a href="#s4"><font size=4 FACE="Times New Roman">SECTION 4 HEADING</a> <li><a href="#sx"><font size=4 FACE="Times New Roman">SECTION X etc.</a> <li><a href="#ref"><font size=4 FACE="Times New Roman">REFERENCES</a> </ol> </td></tr></table> </center>
Beyond the title, author(s), date and abstract information, this format provides a table of contents that allows forward links into the body of the paper. Each section begins with a HTML NAME tag to provide an anchor to the beginning of the section. Similarly, a link is provided to the reference list at the end of the paper. Each section begins with the following HTML code:
<A NAME="#sX"> <p> <table border="4" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%"> <tr><td width="1%"><img src="fislogo2.gif" border="0"></td> <td width="*" align="middle"><center><p><p><font size=3 FACE="Times New Roman"><b>X. SECTION HEADING<BR> </FONT></b></center></td></tr></table> <P>
Note that the X in the NAME tag and the SECTION NUMBER correspond to the section number in the table of contents.
