Abstract
1. Main text
(10 pt) Here introduce the paper, and put a nomenclature if necessary, in a box with the same font size as the
rest of the paper. The paragraphs continue from here and are only separated by headings, subheadings, images
and formulae. The section headings are arranged by numbers, bold and 10 pt. Here follows further instructions
for authors.
Nomenclature
A radius of
B position of
C further nomenclature continues down the page inside the text box
1.1. Structure
For this Procedia the files must be in MS Word format only and should be formatted for direct printing.
Figures and tables should be embedded and not supplied separately. Please make sure that you use as much as
possible normal fonts in your documents. Special fonts, such as fonts used in the Far East (Japanese, Chinese,
Korean, etc.) may cause problems during processing. To avoid unnecessary errors you are strongly advised to
use the ‘spellchecker’ function of MS Word. Follow this order when typing manuscripts: Title, Authors,
Affiliations, Abstract, Keywords, Main text (including figures and tables), Acknowledgements, References,
Appendix. Collate acknowledgements in a separate section at the end of the article and do not include them on
the title page, as a footnote to the title or otherwise.
Bulleted lists may be included and should look like this:
• First point
• Second point
• And so on
Ensure that you return to the ‘Els-body-text’ style, the style that you will mainly be using for large blocks of
text, when you have completed your bulleted list.
Please do not alter the formatting and style layouts which have been set up in this template document. As
indicated in the template, papers should be prepared in single column format suitable for direct printing onto
A4 paper (192mm x 262 mm). Do not number pages on the front, as page numbers will be added separately for
the preprints and the Proceedings. Leave a line clear between paragraphs. All the required style templates are
provided in this document with the appropriate name supplied, e.g. choose 1. Els1st-order-head for your first
order heading text, els-abstract-text for the abstract text etc.
1.2. Tables
All tables should be numbered with Arabic numerals. Headings should be placed above tables, left justified.
Leave one line space between the heading and the table. Only horizontal lines should be used within a table, to
distinguish the column headings from the body of the table, and immediately above and below the table. Tables
must be embedded into the text and not supplied separately. Below is an example which authors may find useful.
References should be added at the end of the paper, and its corresponding citation will be added in the order
of their appearance in the text. Authors should ensure that every reference in the text appears in the list of
references and vice versa. Indicate references by Clark et al., 1962 or Deal and Grove, 2009 or Fachinger, 2006
in the text. The actual authors can be referred to, but the reference citation(s) must always be given.

Some examples of how your references should be listed are given at the end of this template in the
‘References’ section, which will allow you to assemble your reference list according to the correct format and
font size.
Section headings should be left justified, with the first letter capitalized and numbered consecutively, starting
with the Introduction. Sub-section headings should be in capital and lower-case italic letters, numbered 1.1, 1.2,
etc, and left justified, with second and subsequent lines indented. You may need to insert a page break to keep
a heading with its text.
Avoid hyphenation at the end of a line. Symbols denoting vectors and matrices should be indicated in bold
type. Scalar variable names should normally be expressed using italics. Weights and measures should be
expressed in SI units. Please title your files in this order conferenceacrynom_authorslastname.pdf
1.6. Footnotes
Footnotes should be avoided if possible. Necessary footnotes should be denoted in the text by consecutive
superscript letters. The footnotes should be typed single spaced, and in smaller type size (8pt), at the foot of the
page in which they are mentioned, and separated from the main text by a short line extending at the foot of the
column. The ‘Els-footnote’ style is available in this template for the text of the footnote.
2. Author Artwork
All figures should be numbered with Arabic numerals (1,2,...n). All photographs, schemas, graphs and
diagrams are to be referred to as figures. Line drawings should be good quality scans or true electronic output.
Low-quality scans are not acceptable. Figures must be embedded into the text and not supplied separately.
Lettering and symbols should be clearly defined either in the caption or in a legend provided as part of the figure.
Figures should be placed at the top or bottom of a page wherever possible, as close as possible to the first
reference to them in the paper.
The figure number and caption should be typed below the illustration in 8pt and left justified. For more
guidelines and information to help you submit high quality artwork please visit:
http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/authorsview.authors/authorartworkinstructions. Artwork has no text along
the side of it in the main body of the text. However, if two images fit next to each other, these may be placed
next to each other to save space, see Fig 1. They must be numbered consecutively, all figures, and all tables
respectively.
4 Author name / Investigación de Operaciones
Equations and formulae should be typed and numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals in parentheses
on the right hand side of the page (if referred to explicitly in the text),

J C (T = const.) P + (1 − P )

They should also be separated from the surrounding text by one space.

Authors including an appendix section should do so after References section. Multiple appendices should all
have headings in the style used above. They will automatically be ordered A, B, C etc.
There is also the option to include a subheading within the Appendix if you wish.
