Like the journal article abstract, most conference abstracts have strict word limitations (typically between 150 and 200 words). Adherence to this limit is expected your abstract will likely be rejected if the limit is exceeded. Many other formatting specifications must also be followed. For example, most instructions include rules for formatting your title, author list, graphics, and special characters (e.g., pm, a, <, m ). The reason for such specificity is that your abstract, if accepted, will be printed (as is) in conference proceedings. Adherence to these guidelines by all authors ensures that the proceedings appear uniform and professional. 

Keywords A list of keywords is not included in a conference abstract (as it is in a journal article abstract), but it is wise to use keywords in the abstract text and title. The inclusion of keywords facilitates electronic searches, making the work more accessible to others interested in your held.

Papers presented at a session may appear as a one-print document, as individual papers, in electronic format, or only as abstracts. Most of the engineering conferences fall into specific fields of interest. There are resources and guidelines that help develop the search strategy for locating any conference or paper within a conference. Two titles available through online subscriptions are the Directory of Published Proceedings and Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISTP). The directory identifies the conference, the location, and its sponsor. 

The poster text is divided into the same general IMRD sections as the journal article Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion. Similarly, most posters include an Acknowledgments section, some have an abbreviated References section, and all have a title and author list. Most posters do not include an abstract, in part because of space limitations and in part because an abstract already appears in the conference proceedings. Like the journal article, the IMRD structure of the poster follows an hourglass shape. The top (Introduction) and bottom (Discussion) sections have a broader focus, while the middle sections (Methods and Results) have a narrower focus. Each section of the poster can be divided into individual moves or steps that guide viewers in a conventional way through the content of each section. These moves are analyzed in the next part of the chapter.

Chemical Abstracts (Dl) is undoubtedly the most convenient and comprehensive reference source, particularly since 1962 when a section devoted to organometallic and organometalloidal compounds was introduced. Information concerning books, review articles, and conferences is, however, extremely brief, and usually the subject matter of a particular entry must be judged solely from the title. Comparable publications in other languages include Chemisches Informationsdienst (D2) and Refera-tivnyi Zhumal, Khimya. 

Madison, Wisconsin, 1972 Abstracts were available only to conference participants. There are no plans to publish details of plenary lectures. However, a list of titles and lecturers is given below. 

The whole problem of abbreviated titles is aptly reviewed by Mitchell in his preface to the second edition of the World List, where he states that the use of abbreviated titles is a necessity in scientific literature, but unless the abbreviations have been devised so that each one indicates only one periodical and also unless they are in general use, they fail of their purpose. The Royal Society Scientific Information Conference, held in London from June 21 to July 2, 1948, recommended that the World List abbreviations be adopted by abstracting agencies.
