ABSTRACT

Insert text of abstract here [Style “J_IASS_Abstract”].

Keywords: Insert a few keywords here separated by commas [Style “J_IASS_Keywords”]

1.	INTRODUCTION

To automatically inherit most of the correct formats and styles, please insert your text and other content directly into this template and save it as a Word document. You can replace all of the explanatory text here and above with the content of your paper. The main-body text is in two columns and should be in MS Word Style “J_IASS_Text,” which will automatically provide 11-point Times New Roman, left and right justified with the first lines of all paragraphs not indented, and a 6-point space at the end of each paragraph.

Please note that each and every portion of the manuscript has an appropriate MS Word Style that should be associated with it, and these Styles are all named in the form: “J_IASS_….”

Section titles are in Style “J_IASS_Section_Title,” are in all boldface capital letters, and should be numbered consecutively. Subsection titles are in Style “J_IASS_Subsection_Title”: that is, boldface and numbered as in the following sample.

1.1.	Sample Subsection Title: Equations

Here is a sample equation, centered but with equation number right justified:

2.	REFERENCING LITERATURE

Use the IEEE citation style (concise information at http://pitt.libguides.com/citationhelp/ieee) as shown in the sample reference list at the end of this template. Cite references by bracketed numbers in the text such as [1]. If referring to a specific page of a reference, the citation should be of the form [2, p. 14]. The IEEE style dictates that the references should be numbered and listed at the end of the paper in the order in which they are cited. A Reference list with an unnumbered Section title is required for all papers. A sample reference list is appended below to show how to format the list and how to cite the different types of references. The Style is “J_IASS_Refs.” [Note that the standardized abbreviation for the Journal of the IASS is J. IASS.] If a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) exists for a reference, please include it at the end of the citation, as “DOI: (insert DOI here).”

3.	FIGURES, TABLES AND CAPTIONS

Following is a sample caption, including credit citation to be inserted where appropriate (alternatively, photo credits may be listed in a separate section preceding the References, see example below):

Figure 1: Sample Figure (or Table) Caption [credit or reference for photo or figure not by authors]

Captions are in MS Style “J_IASS_Caption,” are centered, and are in italic 10-point Times New Roman. The caption title is in italic boldface in MS Style “J_IASS_Caption_Title.” Figure and photo captions are below figures, while table captions should be above tables. If figures or tables (or equations) do not fit into a single column of the two-column format, they may be inserted in a separate one-column section across the width of the page; but preferably these full-width objects should be placed at either the top or bottom of a page (if they do not occupy a full page).

4.	COPYRIGHT

The copyright for a paper usually remains with the contributors – see the standard footer on the first page of this template – but the authors may assign the copyright to the IASS. As a prerequisite for publication, a completed and signed IASS Copyright Declaration must be submitted to the IASS Secretariat. This form may be downloaded from the IASS website.

Acknowledgments

This is an optional un-numbered section in which acknowledgments may be included.

Photo Credits

This is an optional un-numbered section where photo and figure credits not included in captions may be listed.

Data Availability

In this un-numbered section the Authors are required to specify the extent of availability of data, computational models, code, and other electronic materials used in work submitted herewith for publication in order to enable the reproducibility of models, simulations or experiments. Authors may choose among several options, providing access to all, some or no data, either by uploading them on a specified url or by declaring their willingness to provide them upon request. The Authors may omit this section only if there are no models, simulations or experiments included in the submitted manuscript.
