Module 06 Bibliography
The Bibliography
The bibliography section of the research paper contains the list of works cited, as well as
works consulted but not cited (example, background reading not necessarily cited) in the
construction of the research. The list of references is numbered and arranged
alphabetically. References must be cited properly, both in the text as well as in the
reference list at the end of the thesis. Anything that uses or refers to the ideas of another
person must be properly acknowledged including direct quotations, paraphrased passages,
author’s previous work and ideas and works done by others.
For format on the writing of references, research papers in IT, Computer Science, and
Engineering must use the IEEE citation and referencing style. Research papers in Business,
Accountancy, Education, Arts and Sciences must use the APA citation and referencing style.
IEEE Referencing
All sources of information, such as quotes or borrowed ideas, must be acknowledged
in your writing.
In the IEEE referencing style, a number [X] is inserted at the point in your writing
where you cite another author's work. At the end of your work, the full reference [X]
of the work is provided. Citations and their corresponding references are provided
in the order they appear throughout your writing.
IEEE in-text citations consist of numbers provided in square brackets, which
correspond to the appropriate sources in the reference list at the end of the paper.

Citing Sources in the Text
The in-text citations numbers start at [1] and continue in ascending order
throughout the paper – unless you are referring to a source you have already cited
in your text, in which case you can use the previously assigned number.
Each in-text citation number should be enclosed by square brackets and appear on
the text line, inside sentence punctuation, with a space before the bracket, e.g.
Thevenin’s and Norton’s theorems are widely used for circuit analysis
simplification [13].

Citations of references may be given simply as “in [1]...”, rather than as “in reference
[1] ...”.
Furthermore, citations may be grammatically treated either as if they were:
- footnote numbers, e.g.
As shown by Jones [4] …
For more details, see [1], [3], [7]. as
mentioned earlier [3], [4]-–[6], [8] …
Taylor et al. [5] have noted … -
or nouns:
As seen in [2] …
According to [4] and [6]–[8] …
In contrast to [5, p. 7], it is evident that…
As demonstrated in [4] …
When authors are mentioned, they may be treated in the following way:
Rickard [5] has shown …
Jones [6], and Zheng and Rogers [7] have stated …
Azzarello et al. [3] stated that they were unable to determine why …
If there are more than three authors, provide et al. (meaning ‘and others’) after the
first author in the text of the paper. Note that et al. is not italicised in the in-text
citations. In the reference list, however, list all the authors for up to six authors– use
et al. only if the names are not given. Also use et al. in the reference list for more
than 6 authors, e.g.:
[8] J. D. Bellamy et al., Computer Telephony Integration, New York: Wiley, 2010.
Do not mention authors of a source or provide date of publication within the text
(e.g. “in Jones [1]” should be changed to “in [1]”) except in such cases where the
author’s name is integral to the understanding of the sentence (e.g. “Jones [1]
proposed a new approach for sensor and actuator selection problems).
Editing the in-text citation numbers may require renumbering the whole reference
list. Please check that the in-text citation numbers match the reference list numbers.

The Reference List in IEEE
At the end of the paper provide full details of all references cited in-text. The
reference list should be arranged in the order of appearance of the in-text citations,
not in an alphabetical order, beginning with [1], and continuing in an ascending

numerical order, from the lowest number to the highest. In the reference list, only
one resource per reference number is acceptable.
Publication titles of books and journals are italicised. In the publication titles, all
‘major words’ (nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, and pronouns) are also capitalised.
Use lower case for ‘minor’ words, such as conjunctions (and, or, not, but), articles (a,
an, the), and prepositions (in, on, near, as, at, by, for, etc.), providing they are not the
first word in a title or subtitle. Titles of articles, chapters, etc. are placed in quotation
marks, in lower case.
Format the reference list using 1.5 line spacing and single paragraph spacing
between each reference.

The Reference List in IEEE
The typical components of a reference list are laid our below. Each reference entry
should generally contain the referencing elements in the following order (if one of
these elements is not recorded in the original source, then you can only use the
elements provided - do not make others up):
(i) Citation number, enclosed within square brackets, is aligned along the left
margin. The text of the entry is indented 2 or 3 spaces;
(ii) Author(s) name(s): first names’ initials are placed first, followed by last
names;
(iii) Title of the article, book chapter, conference paper or report is typed in
double quotation marks, with text provided in lower case;
(iv) Book , Journal or Conference Title is typed in italics. Capitalize the first letter
of each important word in the title;
(v) Publication information: City, State (if U.S.) or Country if City is not well
known: Publisher Name, Date;
(vi) Page number(s) if applicable, i.e. if you are referencing a book section, a book
chapter in an edited book, or an article. Page numbers are cited as p. for a
single page or pp. for multiple pages.
