Instructions for Generating Your Personal Research Description
General Instructions
- Please use the macros below. Please don't fuss with the style file.
- Use the exact same outline (1. problem,
2. impact, 3. state of the art, 4. approach, 5. future work,
6. selected references).
- Use bibtex to generate the references.
- Your research description must fit on exactly two pages.
- Use exactly one figure. The figure may contain multiple
parts.
- You only need to create one version of your research description. An HTML version of your research description will be generated automatically from your latex source files.
Example
- postscript version
- html version
- latex version
- tar archive

Appearance Notes
- Do not use the Latex command centerline{ }, the HTML translator does not handle it well. Instead use the commands \begin{center} and \end{center}.
- Use the Latex style and command epsfig{ } instead of psfig{ }, the HTML translator will generate better results. To convert a PS file to an EPS file use the UNIX command ps2epsi.
HTML Info
Latex write ups will be converted to HTML using the
LaTeX2HTML translator.
The converter provides a mechanism to make hyperlinks "live" in the web version of your document using
the \htmladdnormallink command.
It has the syntax:
\htmladdnormallink{
<text>}{
<URL>}
The \htmladdnormallink command expects some text as the first argument
and a URL as the second argument.
When processed by LATEX (i.e. in the .dvi or .ps output files),
the URL will have no effect. But when processed by the translator,
the URL will be used to provide an active hypertext link
(to another file, picture, sound-file, movie, etc.) e.g.:
\htmladdnormallink{

To make this work you will need to download the html style file: html.sty
Note that the file "html.sty" is already included in the tar archive of macros above.
