sentence: “Reference [3] was the first ...”

Use letters for table footnotes.

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should be cited as “unpublished” [4].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 the first word in a paper title, except for
proper nouns and element symbols.
For papers published in translation journals, please give
the English citation first, followed by the original foreign-
language citation [6].

IEEE conference templates contain guidance text for

composing and formatting conference papers. Please
ensure that all template text is removed from your
conference paper prior to submission to the
conference. Failure to remove template text from
your paper may result in your paper not being
published.

We suggest that you use a text box to insert a graphic

(which is ideally a 300 dpi TIFF or EPS file, with all fonts
embedded) because, in an MSW document, this method is
somewhat more stable than directly inserting a picture.
To have non-visible rules on your frame, use the
