IEEEtran.bst is the official BibTeX style for authors of the Institute of
|
|
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Transactions journals and
|
|
conferences.
|
|
|
|
It also may have applications for other academic work such as theses and
|
|
technical reports. The alphanumeric and natbib variants extend the
|
|
applicability of the IEEEtran bibstyle family to the natural sciences
|
|
and beyond.
|
|
|
|
The IEEEtran bibstyle is a very comprehensive BibTeX style which provides
|
|
many features beyond the standard BibTeX styles, including full support
|
|
for references of online documents, patents, periodicals and standards.
|
|
See the provided user manual for detailed usage information.
|
|
|
|
The latest version of the IEEEtran BibTeX style can be found at CTAN:
|
|
|
|
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/IEEEtran/bibtex/
|
|
|
|
as well as within IEEE's site:
|
|
|
|
http://www.ieee.org/
|
|
|
|
Note that the packages at IEEE's site do not contain the natbib and
|
|
alphanumeric variants (e.g., IEEEtranN.bst, etc.) as these are not used
|
|
for IEEE related work. These files can be obtained on CTAN.
|
|
|

Version 1.12 (2007/01/11) changes:
|
|
|
|
1. Fixed bug with unwanted comma before "et al." when an entry contained
|
|
more than two author names. Thanks to Pallav Gupta for reporting this.
|
|
|
|
2. Fixed bug with anomalous closing quote in tech reports that have a
|
|
type, but without a number or address. Thanks to Mehrdad Mirreza for
|
|
reporting this.
|
|
|
|
3. Use braces in \providecommand in begin.bib to better support
|
|
latex2html. TeX style length assignments OK with recent versions
|
|
of latex2html - 1.71 (2002/2/1) or later is strongly recommended.
|
|
Use of the language field still causes trouble with latex2html.
|
|
Thanks to Federico Beffa for reporting this.
|
|
|
|
4. Added IEEEtran.bst ID and version comment string to .bbl output.
|
|
|
|
5. Provide a \BIBdecl hook that allows the user to execute commands
|
|
just prior to the first entry.
|
|
|
|
6. Use default urlstyle (is using url.sty) of "same" rather than rm to
|
|
better work with a wider variety of bibliography styles.
|
|
|
|
7. Changed month abbreviations from Sept., July and June to Sep., Jul.,
|
|
and Jun., respectively, as IEEE now does. Thanks to Moritz Borgmann
|
|
for reporting this.
|
|
|
|
8. Control entry types should not be considered when calculating longest
|
|
label width.
|
|
|
|
9. Added alias www for electronic/online.
|
|
|
|
10. Updated full and abbreviated journal name string definitions in
|
|
IEEEfull.bib and IEEEabrv.bib.
|
|
|
|
11. New IEEEtranSA.bst, IEEEtranN.bst, and IEEEtranSN.bst variants for
|
|
alphanumeric citation tags and natbib compatibility.
