\begin{abstract}
  
  This is the abstract of my paper.  It must fit within the size
  allowed, which is about 3 inches, including section title, which is
  11 point bold font.  If you don't want the text in italics, simply
  remove the 'em' command and the curly braces which bound the
  abstract text.  If you have em commands within an italicized
  abstract, the text will come out as normal (nonitalicized) text.

\end{abstract}

% latex8.sty uses \Section, \SubSection instead of \section, \subsection
\Section{Introduction}

Here is my introduction text.  There are 2 blank lines before the section 
heading and one afterwards.  Heading text is 12 point bold font.  Paragraphs 
are not indented.  I may want a numbered subsection, which is done as follows.


\SubSection{Previous Work}

In subsections there is 1 blank line before the section heading and one 
afterwards.  Heading text is 11 point bold font.  Paragraphs are separated by 
blank lines without tabs.

Throughout I may cite references of the form \cite{key:foo} or
\cite{foo:baz}, and LaTeX will keep track of numbering.  The numbers are based
on the order you place them in the bibliography, not the order they appear in
the text.  They should (I believe) be in alphabetical order.  LaTex will put
square brackets about the number within the text of your paper.  For those of 
you new to the bibliography package, you may have to run the latex process 
twice to allow all references to be resolved.  You will get a warning about
a missing .aux file.  Just rerun latex and it will be ok.

\Section{Main Part}
\label{sec:main}

This is where the main results can be stated. You can also use
figures which you can compose using Xfig or any other program
that can produce encapsulated Postscript (EPS) files.
You can reference the figures by assigning labels and referencing
them. For example, here is Figure \ref{fig:sample} in Section
\ref{sec:main}. You need to run \LaTeX\ twice to get the
references right!

\begin{figure}

    \leavevmode
    % this is where the EPS file is included:
    \epsfig{file=sample.eps,width=6cm}
    \caption{Some sample figure.}
    \label{fig:sample}
  \end{center}
\end{figure}


\Section{Summary and Conclusions}

This template will get you through the minimum article, i.e. no figures or
equations.  To include those, please refer to your LaTeX manual and the IEEE
publications guidelines.  Good Luck!

\subsection*{Acknowledgements}

This is how to do an unnumbered subsection, which comes out in 11 point bold
font.  Here I thank my colleagues, especially Mike Gennert, who know more 
about Tex and LaTeX than I.
