\subsection*{\centering Abstract}
%IEEE allows italicized abstract
\noindent
{\it 
The abstract should be about 200 words, in a 10-point Roman
italic font such as Computer Modern or Times.  
It should summarise
the scope and results of the paper in a concise and accurate manner without
references to other works.  
The title should be centred in a 14-point Roman bold font
followed by the authors names, affiliations, and e-mail addresses.  
Phone and fax numbers should be omitted.
}

\paragraph{Keywords} 
Computer science, database systems, computing theory, whatever.

\section{Overall format}
Papers should be prepared for A4 paper,
with 25~mm margins 
(equivalently, the text height should be 247~mm and the width 160~mm),
using left and right justification,
in a 10-point Roman font such as Computer Modern or Times, 
in two-column format.\footnote{Footnotes may be used and should 
be in 7 point text, numbered from 1 through the text.}
The gutter between the columns should be 5~mm wide.
No page headers, footers or numbers should be included.

Citations should be in the IEEE style, for example
Hoare~\cite{Hoare73}, or Ganapathi and Fischer~\cite{GanapathiFischer82}, 
or Barnes~\cite{Barnes80,Barnes89}.

Authors should number the pages by writing on the back
of each page in light pencil.
A 10-page limit on paper length (for all three conferences)
will be strictly enforced.

\LaTeX\ and Microsoft Word versions of this instruction sheet and 
(for the \LaTeX\ version) accompanying style files
are available using the WWW via the conference home page
\begin{center}
\verb"http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/conferences96/"
\end{center}

\section{Caption at the lower left corner}

The lower left corner of the first page of your paper 
should include a caption showing the name of the conference
and the conference dates.
If your paper will appear in the ACSC proceedings, 
this is done by including the following before your abstract:

\begin{verbatim}
 \begin{figure}[b]
 \noindent
 {\small\bf
 Proceedings of the 19th Australasian
 Computer Science Conference,
 Melbourne, Australia,
 January 31--February 2 1996.
 }\end{figure}
\end{verbatim}

For ADC'96 and CATS'96 papers the text to be used is:
\begin{quote}
	\raggedright
        Proceedings of the 7th Australasian Database
	Conference, Melbourne, Australia,
        January 29--January 30 1996.
\end{quote}
or
\begin{quote}
	\raggedright
        Proceedings of CATS'96 (Computing: The Australasian Theory
	Symposium), Melbourne, Australia,
        January 29--January 30 1996.
\end{quote}

\section{Section headings}

Section headings should be numbered and be in a 12-point Roman bold font.

Authors should leave 15 points of space before a section heading and 5
points of space after it.  The first paragraph of each (sub)section should
not be indented.  All other paragraphs should be indented by 5~mm.

\subsection{Subsection headings}
Subsection headings should be in a 12-point Roman bold font.
Subsubsections should not be used.

\subsection{Figures and tables}
Figures and tables should be displayed as near as possible 
to the first reference to them in the text. 
Captions should be centered below the display
and figures and tables should be numbered
consecutively.

\begin{figure}[htb]
\hfil
\hbox{
\begin{tabular}{|c|}
\hline
!!! Insert your figure here !!! \\
!!! Insert your figure here !!! \\
!!! Insert your figure here !!! \\
\hline
\end{tabular}\hfil
}
\caption{An example figure.}

\verb+acsc.sty+ and \verb+acsc.bst+)
is available as a {\LaTeX} source file
via the conference home page at
\begin{center}
\verb"http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/conferences96/"
\end{center}

For versions before \LaTeX2e (such as \LaTeX2.09), you should replace 
the following two lines 
\begin{verbatim}
\documentclass[twocolumn]{article}
\usepackage{acsc}
\end{verbatim}
which are at the beginning of the file \verb+sample.tex+, 
by the line

Unbinhex it if necessary, delete the irrelevant
text, insert the text of your paper, and maintain
and use the various styles defined in the document.

You should also insert the proper caption 
(refer to Section 2) at the lower left corner of 
your first page. This can be done using 
an unnumbered footnote.

\subsection{Hardcopy of style guide}
