Please note that the full publication record for all IOP journals and proceedings can be found in <a href="http://iopscience.iop.org/">IOPscience</a>.</p> <ul class="bulleted"> <li>All proceedings in IOP Conference Series are published as a single volume of the relevant title. Typically, each volume has just a single issue but very large volumes may be split into two or more issues for ease of reading and navigation.</li> <li>Papers published in IOP Conference Series titles use an article numbering system that means that papers should be cited by using the six-digit article number in place of a page number (see examples below).</li> <li>Every article has its own unique identifier called a <a href="http://www.doi.org/">Digital Object Identifier</a> (DOI).</li> <li>Articles can be linked via the <a href="http://www.crossref.org/">Crossref system</a>.</li> <li>The pages in the PDF file of each article are numbered from 1. These page numbers should not normally be included in a reference. However, if it is desirable to indicate the length of an article, this can be done by including the number of pages, in parentheses, after the article number.</li> </ul> <h3>Examples of citations to conference proceedings</h3> <p>References to conference papers should include:</p> <ul> <li>Author(s)</li> <li>Year of publication</li> <li>Title of conference (in italics, initial letter of each significant word should be capital)</li> </ul> <p>Example:</p> <ul> <li>Mahanta N K and Abramson A R 2012 Thermal conductivity of graphene and graphene oxide nanoplatelets <em>13th Intersociety Conf. on Thermal and Thermomechanical Phenomena in Electronic Systems</em></li> </ul> <h3>Examples of citations to conference series</h3> <ul> <li>Barry R Holstein 2009 <em>J.
