\begin{abstract}
The abstract of every INTER-NOISE \YearConf{} paper is usually submitted as a “pdf” file. The abstract should be written in 12-point "Times New Roman" italic font and its length ought to be at least 150 words and at most 200 words. Hyperlinks, special characters, equations, images and drawings should NOT be put in the abstract, and avoid the use of acronyms.  As in the paper, avoid overt commercialism.  The accepted abstract should be inserted here. Some (not too many) changes are acceptable so long as the rules above are followed.
\end{abstract}

\section{Introduction}

This paper is a template to which you can refer for your paper.  The first step is to compile this document and make sure everything is working on your computer.  Your .pdf file should match what you should see in Template.pdf. 

It is anticipated that the INTER-NOISE \YearConf{} \CityConf{} Proceedings will be distributed to the congress 
participants either on a memory stick or directly downloadable as a single (zipped or equivalent) file from the web. 

\begin{itemize}[noitemsep]
\item 
The purpose of these instructions is to ensure the uniformity of the publication. 
\item
The manuscript should be submitted as a PDF file whose font is 12-point.
\item
The length of a manuscript should be at most 12 pages and at least 4 pages. 
\item
Only manuscripts in English will be accepted for the Proceedings. 
\item
You must not insert any page number, header or foot note except the e-mail addresses on the first page of the manuscript. 
\item
The file name for your paper should be of the form:  IN\_\YearConf\_XXXX.pdf, where XXXX is your abstract number. If your abstract number is shorter than 4 digits, it should be extended to be 4 digits by adding zeros before the number.   See Table \ref{Tab:1} for examples.
\end{itemize}

\begin{table}[htbp!]
\caption{Example of naming conventions for your paper.}
\label{Tab:1}
\centering
\begin{tabular}{c c } 
 \hline
 \textbf{Abstract Number} &  \textbf{Paper File Name}  \\ 
 \hline
 3 & IN\_\YearConf\_0003.pdf \\ 
 32 &  IN\_\YearConf\_0032.pdf  \\
 998 & IN\_\YearConf\_0998.pdf  \\
 1232 &  IN\_\YearConf\_1232.pdf  \\ 
 \hline
\end{tabular}
\end{table}

\section{Manuscript Format}

Margin settings, paragraphs, figure and table settings are explained here.  These instructions follow the paper formatting rules.  

\subsection{Margin Settings}
\begin{itemize}[noitemsep]
\item
The paper size is A4.
\item
Margin settings: Top (2 cm), Bottom (2 cm), Left (2 cm), Right (2 cm).  2 cm is approximately 0.79 in.
\item
The text should be justified from left to right.
\end{itemize}

\subsection{Paragraphs}

\begin{itemize}[noitemsep]
\item
Some text between a section heading and subheadings within the section is desirable to give a brief heads-up to the reader on the organization of the section
\item
The first line of the paragraphs should be indented by 1.0 cm,  which is approximately 0.4in, unless it is immediately after a heading in which case there should be no indent. 
\item
Major headings shall be numerically ordered as 1., 2., ?.,  in bold font and all upper case.
\item
Level 2 subheading should be 1.1, 1.2, .....2.1., 2.2.,  ..., in bold font, sentence style not all upper case.
\item
Lines should be single spaced.
\end{itemize}

\subsection{Figures, Equations, Tables}

All figures, tables, equations, photos, graphs, etc., must be shown shortly after they are mentioned, placed with horizontal centering on a page as shown in \ref{fig:1} below.

\subsubsection{Figures}

The captions of figures (plots, drawings, illustrations and photos) are put below the figure (see Figure \ref{fig:1}).  
They are centered if one line or less long, and fully justified if longer than one line.  They should be referred to in the text as Figure 1, Figure 2, etc. 

\begin{figure}[htbp!]
  \centering
  \includegraphics[width=2in]{\LogoConf}
  \caption{The INTER-NOISE \YearConf ~logo.}
  \label{fig:1}
\end{figure}

\subsubsection{Equations}

The equations should be referenced as Equation 1, Equation 2, etc. For example: the formula for estimating the mean value, is:
\begin{equation}
\bar{X} = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{i=1}^{N} X_i ~~,
\label{Eq:1}
\end{equation}
where $X_i$ are the measurements, and $N$ is the number of measurements.  The equation should be part of the sentence, either with a period at the end, or a comma as in Equation  \ref{Eq:1} as shown above where after the displayed equation, the variables 
are explained as part of the sentence that contains the displayed equation. 

\subsubsection{Tables}

The caption for a table should be placed just above the table and the table number should be Table~1, Table~2,  etc. like Table~\ref{Tab:2} below.  The caption is centered if it is one line long or less, and fully justified if longer than one line.  Tables should be referred to in the text as, e.g., Table~\ref{Tab:2}.

\begin{table}[htbp!]
\caption{Example of values displayed in a table. The header row is bold, and the columns are not usually separated by lines.}
\label{Tab:2}
\centering
\begin{tabular}{c c c } 
 \hline
 \textbf{Test Number} &  \textbf{Variable 1}& \textbf{Variable 2}  \\ 
 \hline
 1 & 6.1 & $\omega_a$ \\ 
 2 & 7.2 & $\omega_b$  \\
 3 & 3.3 & $\Omega$ \\ 
 \hline
\end{tabular}
\end{table}

\section{Referencing other work}

Use a numerical referencing system for citing papers, where the references are numbered in the order of each work’s first citation in the paper. For example, for the references list at the end of this “paper” we might have written something like the following in the paper:  
\begin{quotation}
[...] There have been many studies on the effect of stimulus duration on subjects’ evaluations of sounds, see, e.g., \cite{Poulsen1, Ryherd2007, Tang2006}.  Poulson \cite{Poulsen1} focused on annoyance and Tang, Liu and Zeng \cite{Tang2006} studied variations in loudness perception through time [...] Noise made by refrigerators is typically nonstationary with compressors and fans turning on and off, and each potentially operating at different speeds \cite{May96} [...]  Models that predict perception of various sound attribute strengths are described in \cite{Zwicker_Fastl_2006}.  Several models that predict loudness of stationary sounds have been standardized, see, e.g., \cite{ANSI_S3_4}, which is based on research by Moore and Glasberg, and differs from Zwicker’s models of loudness that are described in \cite{Zwicker_Fastl_2006}. [...]
\end{quotation}

For Latex users, please take care to carefully complete a .bib file for use with BibTeX. The .bib file in this example is sample.bib.
The LaTeX references cited here are:  \cite{latexcompanion, knuthwebsite}.
Some additional references have been included as examples for format of manuals, webpage information, journal papers, conference papers, books and a standard \cite{Poulsen1, Ryherd2007, Tang2006, May96,  Zwicker_Fastl_2006, ANSI_S3_4}. 
Use the unsrt bibliography style file.

Make sure that you reference other people's work as well as your own previous work, but only reference information that is directly relevant to the content of your paper.  Make sure that each entry in the references section has all the information included and thus that reference can be easily found by the interested reader.

\section{IMPORTANT Uploading INFORMATION}
\label{important}

Here are the instructions for submitting manuscripts, with some comments on conversion to PDF.

\subsection{Submission of Manuscripts}

Submit your manuscript as a PDF file using the link on the INTER-NOISE \YearConf ~website (www.internoise\YearConf.org).  See subsection \ref{important}.\ref{conversion} about checking your conversion to PDF.

Before submitting the manuscript, you need to pay the registration fee and if you submit two manuscripts, you need to pay the extra nominal charge for this additional manuscript.

\subsection{Conversion to PDF}
\label{conversion}

Before submission, you need to check your PDF file carefully to be sure that PDF conversion was done properly and there is no error when the PDF file is opened. The following problems may occur.
\begin{itemize}[noitemsep]
\item
Symbols are missed.
\item
Symbols are converted incorrectly, especially mathematical symbols.
\item
Figures are missing, or are in the wrong place (should be very close to, and after, the first reference to them).
\item
Indentation is not correct.
\end{itemize}
The author is responsible for sorting out these problems and the manuscript  in the Congress Proceedings will be as it was received.

\section{Final comments and conclusions}

Please follow the instructions.  Mostly the Latex stuff will look after you, but check everything is working first. Recompile this document to make sure you get the same as the Template.pdf file before you start working on your own paper.  

Copy that working .tex file  to a file named  IN\_\YearConf\_XXXX.tex where  XXXX is your ABSTRACT number with 0s added at the front to make it 4 digits long.   Edit and compile that to create your paper, keeping the original file as a reference on formatting.   

Always check the results after editing to make sure that everything is still good and all your edits worked.
