giuliomoro@0 1 % This is "sig-alternate.tex" V2.1 April 2013
giuliomoro@0 2 % This file should be compiled with V2.8 of "sig-alternate.cls" May 2012
giuliomoro@0 3 %
giuliomoro@0 4 % This example file demonstrates the use of the 'sig-alternate.cls'
giuliomoro@0 5 % V2.8 LaTeX2e document class file. It is for those submitting
giuliomoro@0 6 % articles to ACM Conference Proceedings WHO DO NOT WISH TO
giuliomoro@0 7 % STRICTLY ADHERE TO THE SIGS (PUBS-BOARD-ENDORSED) STYLE.
giuliomoro@0 8 % The 'sig-alternate.cls' file will produce a similar-looking,
giuliomoro@0 9 % albeit, 'tighter' paper resulting in, invariably, fewer pages.

giuliomoro@0 12 % This .tex file (and associated .cls V2.8) produces:

giuliomoro@0 14 % 2) The Conference (location) Info information
giuliomoro@0 15 % 3) The Copyright Line with ACM data
giuliomoro@0 16 % 4) NO page numbers

giuliomoro@0 21 % Using 'sig-alternate.cls' you have control, however, from within
giuliomoro@0 22 % the source .tex file, over both the CopyrightYear
giuliomoro@0 23 % (defaulted to 200X) and the ACM Copyright Data
giuliomoro@0 24 % (defaulted to X-XXXXX-XX-X/XX/XX).
giuliomoro@0 25 % e.g.
giuliomoro@0 26 % \CopyrightYear{2007} will cause 2007 to appear in the copyright line.
giuliomoro@0 27 % \crdata{0-12345-67-8/90/12} will cause 0-12345-67-8/90/12 to appear in the copyright line.

giuliomoro@0 30 % This .tex source is an example which *does* use
giuliomoro@0 31 % the .bib file (from which the .bbl file % is produced).
giuliomoro@0 32 % REMEMBER HOWEVER: After having produced the .bbl file,
giuliomoro@0 33 % and prior to final submission, you *NEED* to 'insert'
giuliomoro@0 34 % your .bbl file into your source .tex file so as to provide

giuliomoro@0 177 \begin{abstract}
giuliomoro@0 178 In this paper, we describe the formatting guidelines for the Proceedings of the Web Audio Conference 2016. This template has been adapted from the ACM SIG Proceedings Template available at www.acm.org.\footnote{\url{http://www.acm.org/publications/article-templates/proceedings-template.html}} This paper provides a sample of a \LaTeX\ document which conforms,
giuliomoro@0 179 somewhat loosely, to the formatting guidelines for
giuliomoro@0 180 ACM SIG Proceedings. It is an {\em alternate} style which produces
giuliomoro@0 181 a {\em tighter-looking} paper and was designed in response to
giuliomoro@0 182 concerns expressed, by authors, over page-budgets.
giuliomoro@0 183 It complements the document \textit{Author's (Alternate) Guide to
giuliomoro@0 184 Preparing ACM SIG Proceedings Using \LaTeX$2_\epsilon$\ and Bib\TeX}.
giuliomoro@0 185 This source file has been written with the intention of being
giuliomoro@0 186 compiled under \LaTeX$2_\epsilon$\ and BibTeX.
giuliomoro@0 187
giuliomoro@0 188 The developers have tried to include every imaginable sort
giuliomoro@0 189 of ``bells and whistles", such as a subtitle, footnotes on
giuliomoro@0 190 title, subtitle and authors, as well as in the text, and
giuliomoro@0 191 every optional component (e.g. Acknowledgments, Additional
giuliomoro@0 192 Authors, Appendices), not to mention examples of
giuliomoro@0 193 equations, theorems, tables and figures.
giuliomoro@0 194
giuliomoro@0 195 To make best use of this sample document, run it through \LaTeX\
giuliomoro@0 196 and BibTeX, and compare this source code with the printed
giuliomoro@0 197 output produced by the dvi file. A compiled PDF version
giuliomoro@0 198 is available on the web page to help you with the
giuliomoro@0 199 `look and feel'.

giuliomoro@0 253 \section{Introduction}
giuliomoro@0 254 The \textit{proceedings} are the records of a conference.
giuliomoro@0 255 ACM seeks to give these conference by-products a uniform,
giuliomoro@0 256 high-quality appearance. To do this, ACM has some rigid
giuliomoro@0 257 requirements for the format of the proceedings documents: there
giuliomoro@0 258 is a specified format (balanced double columns), a specified
giuliomoro@0 259 set of fonts (Arial or Helvetica and Times Roman) in
giuliomoro@0 260 certain specified sizes (for instance, 9 point for body copy),
giuliomoro@0 261 a specified live area (18 $\times$ 23.5 cm [7" $\times$ 9.25"]) centered on
giuliomoro@0 262 the page, specified size of margins (1.9 cm [0.75"]) top, (2.54 cm [1"]) bottom
giuliomoro@0 263 and (1.9 cm [.75"]) left and right; specified column width
giuliomoro@0 264 (8.45 cm [3.33"]) and gutter size (.83 cm [.33"]).
giuliomoro@0 265
giuliomoro@0 266 The good news is, with only a handful of manual
giuliomoro@0 267 settings\footnote{Two of these, the {\texttt{\char'134 numberofauthors}}
giuliomoro@0 268 and {\texttt{\char'134 alignauthor}} commands, you have
giuliomoro@0 269 already used; another, {\texttt{\char'134 balancecolumns}}, will
giuliomoro@0 270 be used in your very last run of \LaTeX\ to ensure
giuliomoro@0 271 balanced column heights on the last page.}, the \LaTeX\ document
giuliomoro@0 272 class file handles all of this for you.
giuliomoro@0 273
giuliomoro@0 274 The remainder of this document is concerned with showing, in
giuliomoro@0 275 the context of an ``actual'' document, the \LaTeX\ commands
giuliomoro@0 276 specifically available for denoting the structure of a
giuliomoro@0 277 proceedings paper, rather than with giving rigorous descriptions
giuliomoro@0 278 or explanations of such commands.
giuliomoro@0 279
giuliomoro@0 280 \section{The {\secit Body} of The Paper}
giuliomoro@0 281 Typically, the body of a paper is organized
giuliomoro@0 282 into a hierarchical structure, with numbered or unnumbered
giuliomoro@0 283 headings for sections, subsections, sub-subsections, and even
giuliomoro@0 284 smaller sections. The command \texttt{{\char'134}section} that
giuliomoro@0 285 precedes this paragraph is part of such a
giuliomoro@0 286 hierarchy.\footnote{This is the second footnote. It
giuliomoro@0 287 starts a series of three footnotes that add nothing
giuliomoro@0 288 informational, but just give an idea of how footnotes work
giuliomoro@0 289 and look. It is a wordy one, just so you see
giuliomoro@0 290 how a longish one plays out.} \LaTeX\ handles the numbering
giuliomoro@0 291 and placement of these headings for you, when you use
giuliomoro@0 292 the appropriate heading commands around the titles
giuliomoro@0 293 of the headings. If you want a sub-subsection or
giuliomoro@0 294 smaller part to be unnumbered in your output, simply append an
giuliomoro@0 295 asterisk to the command name. Examples of both
giuliomoro@0 296 numbered and unnumbered headings will appear throughout the
giuliomoro@0 297 balance of this sample document.
giuliomoro@0 298
giuliomoro@0 299 Because the entire article is contained in
giuliomoro@0 300 the \textbf{document} environment, you can indicate the
giuliomoro@0 301 start of a new paragraph with a blank line in your
giuliomoro@0 302 input file; that is why this sentence forms a separate paragraph.
giuliomoro@0 303
giuliomoro@0 304 \subsection{Type Changes and {\subsecit Special} Characters}
giuliomoro@0 305 We have already seen several typeface changes in this sample. You
giuliomoro@0 306 can indicate italicized words or phrases in your text with
giuliomoro@0 307 the command \texttt{{\char'134}textit}; emboldening with the
giuliomoro@0 308 command \texttt{{\char'134}textbf}
giuliomoro@0 309 and typewriter-style (for instance, for computer code) with
giuliomoro@0 310 \texttt{{\char'134}texttt}. But remember, you do not
giuliomoro@0 311 have to indicate typestyle changes when such changes are
giuliomoro@0 312 part of the \textit{structural} elements of your
giuliomoro@0 313 article; for instance, the heading of this subsection will
giuliomoro@0 314 be in a sans serif\footnote{A third footnote, here.
giuliomoro@0 315 Let's make this a rather short one to
giuliomoro@0 316 see how it looks.} typeface, but that is handled by the
giuliomoro@0 317 document class file. Take care with the use
giuliomoro@0 318 of\footnote{A fourth, and last, footnote.}
giuliomoro@0 319 the curly braces in typeface changes; they mark
giuliomoro@0 320 the beginning and end of
giuliomoro@0 321 the text that is to be in the different typeface.
giuliomoro@0 322
giuliomoro@0 323 You can use whatever symbols, accented characters, or
giuliomoro@0 324 non-English characters you need anywhere in your document;
giuliomoro@0 325 you can find a complete list of what is
giuliomoro@0 326 available in the \textit{\LaTeX\
giuliomoro@0 327 User's Guide}\cite{Lamport:LaTeX}.
giuliomoro@0 328
giuliomoro@0 329 \subsection{Math Equations}
giuliomoro@0 330 You may want to display math equations in three distinct styles:
giuliomoro@0 331 inline, numbered or non-numbered display. Each of
giuliomoro@0 332 the three are discussed in the next sections.
giuliomoro@0 333
giuliomoro@0 334 \subsubsection{Inline (In-text) Equations}
giuliomoro@0 335 A formula that appears in the running text is called an
giuliomoro@0 336 inline or in-text formula. It is produced by the
giuliomoro@0 337 \textbf{math} environment, which can be
giuliomoro@0 338 invoked with the usual \texttt{{\char'134}begin. . .{\char'134}end}
giuliomoro@0 339 construction or with the short form \texttt{\$. . .\$}. You
giuliomoro@0 340 can use any of the symbols and structures,
giuliomoro@0 341 from $\alpha$ to $\omega$, available in
giuliomoro@0 342 \LaTeX\cite{Lamport:LaTeX}; this section will simply show a
giuliomoro@0 343 few examples of in-text equations in context. Notice how
giuliomoro@0 344 this equation: \begin{math}\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}x=0\end{math},
giuliomoro@0 345 set here in in-line math style, looks slightly different when
giuliomoro@0 346 set in display style. (See next section).
giuliomoro@0 347
giuliomoro@0 348 \subsubsection{Display Equations}
giuliomoro@0 349 A numbered display equation -- one set off by vertical space
giuliomoro@0 350 from the text and centered horizontally -- is produced
giuliomoro@0 351 by the \textbf{equation} environment. An unnumbered display
giuliomoro@0 352 equation is produced by the \textbf{displaymath} environment.
giuliomoro@0 353
giuliomoro@0 354 Again, in either environment, you can use any of the symbols
giuliomoro@0 355 and structures available in \LaTeX; this section will just
giuliomoro@0 356 give a couple of examples of display equations in context.
giuliomoro@0 357 First, consider the equation, shown as an inline equation above:
giuliomoro@0 358 \begin{equation}\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}x=0\end{equation}
giuliomoro@0 359 Notice how it is formatted somewhat differently in
giuliomoro@0 360 the \textbf{displaymath}
giuliomoro@0 361 environment. Now, we'll enter an unnumbered equation:
giuliomoro@0 362 \begin{displaymath}\sum_{i=0}^{\infty} x + 1\end{displaymath}
giuliomoro@0 363 and follow it with another numbered equation:
giuliomoro@0 364 \begin{equation}\sum_{i=0}^{\infty}x_i=\int_{0}^{\pi+2} f\end{equation}
giuliomoro@0 365 just to demonstrate \LaTeX's able handling of numbering.

giuliomoro@0 367 \subsection{Citations}
giuliomoro@0 368 Citations to articles \cite{bowman:reasoning,
giuliomoro@0 369 clark:pct, braams:babel, herlihy:methodology},
giuliomoro@0 370 conference proceedings \cite{clark:pct} or
giuliomoro@0 371 books \cite{salas:calculus, Lamport:LaTeX} listed
giuliomoro@0 372 in the Bibliography section of your
giuliomoro@0 373 article will occur throughout the text of your article.
giuliomoro@0 374 You should use BibTeX to automatically produce this bibliography;
giuliomoro@0 375 you simply need to insert one of several citation commands with
giuliomoro@0 376 a key of the item cited in the proper location in
giuliomoro@0 377 the \texttt{.tex} file \cite{Lamport:LaTeX}.
giuliomoro@0 378 The key is a short reference you invent to uniquely
giuliomoro@0 379 identify each work; in this sample document, the key is
giuliomoro@0 380 the first author's surname and a
giuliomoro@0 381 word from the title. This identifying key is included
giuliomoro@0 382 with each item in the \texttt{.bib} file for your article.
giuliomoro@0 383
giuliomoro@0 384 The details of the construction of the \texttt{.bib} file
giuliomoro@0 385 are beyond the scope of this sample document, but more
giuliomoro@0 386 information can be found in the \textit{Author's Guide},
giuliomoro@0 387 and exhaustive details in the \textit{\LaTeX\ User's
giuliomoro@0 388 Guide}\cite{Lamport:LaTeX}.
giuliomoro@0 389
giuliomoro@0 390 This article shows only the plainest form
giuliomoro@0 391 of the citation command, using \texttt{{\char'134}cite}.
giuliomoro@0 392 This is what is stipulated in the SIGS style specifications.
giuliomoro@0 393 No other citation format is endorsed or supported.
giuliomoro@0 394
giuliomoro@0 395 \subsection{Tables}
giuliomoro@0 396 Because tables cannot be split across pages, the best
giuliomoro@0 397 placement for them is typically the top of the page
giuliomoro@0 398 nearest their initial cite. To
giuliomoro@0 399 ensure this proper ``floating'' placement of tables, use the
giuliomoro@0 400 environment \textbf{table} to enclose the table's contents and
giuliomoro@0 401 the table caption. The contents of the table itself must go
giuliomoro@0 402 in the \textbf{tabular} environment, to
giuliomoro@0 403 be aligned properly in rows and columns, with the desired
giuliomoro@0 404 horizontal and vertical rules. Again, detailed instructions
giuliomoro@0 405 on \textbf{tabular} material
giuliomoro@0 406 is found in the \textit{\LaTeX\ User's Guide}.
giuliomoro@0 407
giuliomoro@0 408 Immediately following this sentence is the point at which
giuliomoro@0 409 Table 1 is included in the input file; compare the
giuliomoro@0 410 placement of the table here with the table in the printed
giuliomoro@0 411 dvi output of this document.
giuliomoro@0 412
giuliomoro@0 413 \begin{table}
giuliomoro@0 414 \centering
giuliomoro@0 415 \caption{Frequency of Special Characters}
giuliomoro@0 416 \begin{tabular}{|c|c|l|} \hline

giuliomoro@0 422 \hline\end{tabular}
giuliomoro@0 423 \end{table}
giuliomoro@0 424
giuliomoro@0 425 To set a wider table, which takes up the whole width of
giuliomoro@0 426 the page's live area, use the environment
giuliomoro@0 427 \textbf{table*} to enclose the table's contents and
giuliomoro@0 428 the table caption. As with a single-column table, this wide
giuliomoro@0 429 table will ``float" to a location deemed more desirable.
giuliomoro@0 430 Immediately following this sentence is the point at which
giuliomoro@0 431 Table 2 is included in the input file; again, it is
giuliomoro@0 432 instructive to compare the placement of the
giuliomoro@0 433 table here with the table in the printed dvi
giuliomoro@0 434 output of this document.

giuliomoro@0 446 \end{table*}
giuliomoro@0 447 % end the environment with {table*}, NOTE not {table}!
giuliomoro@0 448
giuliomoro@0 449 \subsection{Figures}
giuliomoro@0 450 Like tables, figures cannot be split across pages; the
giuliomoro@0 451 best placement for them
giuliomoro@0 452 is typically the top or the bottom of the page nearest
giuliomoro@0 453 their initial cite. To ensure this proper ``floating'' placement
giuliomoro@0 454 of figures, use the environment
giuliomoro@0 455 \textbf{figure} to enclose the figure and its caption.
giuliomoro@0 456
giuliomoro@0 457 This sample document contains examples of \textbf{.eps} files to be
giuliomoro@0 458 displayable with \LaTeX. If you work with pdf\LaTeX, use files in the
giuliomoro@0 459 \textbf{.pdf} format. Note that most modern \TeX\ system will convert
giuliomoro@0 460 \textbf{.eps} to \textbf{.pdf} for you on the fly. More details on
giuliomoro@0 461 each of these is found in the \textit{Author's Guide}.

giuliomoro@0 476
giuliomoro@0 477 As was the case with tables, you may want a figure
giuliomoro@0 478 that spans two columns. To do this, and still to
giuliomoro@0 479 ensure proper ``floating'' placement of tables, use the environment
giuliomoro@0 480 \textbf{figure*} to enclose the figure and its caption.
giuliomoro@0 481 and don't forget to end the environment with
giuliomoro@0 482 {figure*}, not {figure}!

giuliomoro@0 500 \subsection{Theorem-like Constructs}
giuliomoro@0 501 Other common constructs that may occur in your article are
giuliomoro@0 502 the forms for logical constructs like theorems, axioms,
giuliomoro@0 503 corollaries and proofs. There are
giuliomoro@0 504 two forms, one produced by the
giuliomoro@0 505 command \texttt{{\char'134}newtheorem} and the
giuliomoro@0 506 other by the command \texttt{{\char'134}newdef}; perhaps
giuliomoro@0 507 the clearest and easiest way to distinguish them is
giuliomoro@0 508 to compare the two in the output of this sample document:
giuliomoro@0 509
giuliomoro@0 510 This uses the \textbf{theorem} environment, created by
giuliomoro@0 511 the\linebreak\texttt{{\char'134}newtheorem} command:
giuliomoro@0 512 \newtheorem{theorem}{Theorem}
giuliomoro@0 513 \begin{theorem}
giuliomoro@0 514 Let $f$ be continuous on $[a,b]$. If $G$ is
giuliomoro@0 515 an antiderivative for $f$ on $[a,b]$, then
giuliomoro@0 516 \begin{displaymath}\int^b_af(t)dt = G(b) - G(a).\end{displaymath}
giuliomoro@0 517 \end{theorem}
giuliomoro@0 518
giuliomoro@0 519 The other uses the \textbf{definition} environment, created
giuliomoro@0 520 by the \texttt{{\char'134}newdef} command:
giuliomoro@0 521 \newdef{definition}{Definition}
giuliomoro@0 522 \begin{definition}
giuliomoro@0 523 If $z$ is irrational, then by $e^z$ we mean the
giuliomoro@0 524 unique number which has
giuliomoro@0 525 logarithm $z$: \begin{displaymath}{\log e^z = z}\end{displaymath}
giuliomoro@0 526 \end{definition}
giuliomoro@0 527
giuliomoro@0 528 Two lists of constructs that use one of these
giuliomoro@0 529 forms is given in the
giuliomoro@0 530 \textit{Author's Guidelines}.
giuliomoro@0 531
giuliomoro@0 532 There is one other similar construct environment, which is
giuliomoro@0 533 already set up
giuliomoro@0 534 for you; i.e. you must \textit{not} use
giuliomoro@0 535 a \texttt{{\char'134}newdef} command to
giuliomoro@0 536 create it: the \textbf{proof} environment. Here
giuliomoro@0 537 is a example of its use:
giuliomoro@0 538 \begin{proof}
giuliomoro@0 539 Suppose on the contrary there exists a real number $L$ such that
giuliomoro@0 540 \begin{displaymath}
giuliomoro@0 541 \lim_{x\rightarrow\infty} \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = L.
giuliomoro@0 542 \end{displaymath}
giuliomoro@0 543 Then
giuliomoro@0 544 \begin{displaymath}
giuliomoro@0 545 l=\lim_{x\rightarrow c} f(x)
giuliomoro@0 546 = \lim_{x\rightarrow c}
giuliomoro@0 547 \left[ g{x} \cdot \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} \right ]
giuliomoro@0 548 = \lim_{x\rightarrow c} g(x) \cdot \lim_{x\rightarrow c}
giuliomoro@0 549 \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = 0\cdot L = 0,
giuliomoro@0 550 \end{displaymath}
giuliomoro@0 551 which contradicts our assumption that $l\neq 0$.
giuliomoro@0 552 \end{proof}
giuliomoro@0 553
giuliomoro@0 554 Complete rules about using these environments and using the
giuliomoro@0 555 two different creation commands are in the
giuliomoro@0 556 \textit{Author's Guide}; please consult it for more
giuliomoro@0 557 detailed instructions. If you need to use another construct,
giuliomoro@0 558 not listed therein, which you want to have the same
giuliomoro@0 559 formatting as the Theorem
giuliomoro@0 560 or the Definition\cite{salas:calculus} shown above,
giuliomoro@0 561 use the \texttt{{\char'134}newtheorem} or the
giuliomoro@0 562 \texttt{{\char'134}newdef} command,
giuliomoro@0 563 respectively, to create it.
giuliomoro@0 564
giuliomoro@0 565 \subsection*{A {\secit Caveat} for the \TeX\ Expert}
giuliomoro@0 566 Because you have just been given permission to
giuliomoro@0 567 use the \texttt{{\char'134}newdef} command to create a
giuliomoro@0 568 new form, you might think you can
giuliomoro@0 569 use \TeX's \texttt{{\char'134}def} to create a
giuliomoro@0 570 new command: \textit{Please refrain from doing this!}
giuliomoro@0 571 Remember that your \LaTeX\ source code is primarily intended
giuliomoro@0 572 to create camera-ready copy, but may be converted
giuliomoro@0 573 to other forms -- e.g. HTML. If you inadvertently omit
giuliomoro@0 574 some or all of the \texttt{{\char'134}def}s recompilation will
giuliomoro@0 575 be, to say the least, problematic.

giuliomoro@0 577 \section{Conclusions}
giuliomoro@0 578 This paragraph will end the body of this sample document.
giuliomoro@0 579 Remember that you might still have Acknowledgments or
giuliomoro@0 580 Appendices; brief samples of these
giuliomoro@0 581 follow. There is still the Bibliography to deal with; and
giuliomoro@0 582 we will make a disclaimer about that here: with the exception
giuliomoro@0 583 of the reference to the \LaTeX\ book, the citations in
giuliomoro@0 584 this paper are to articles which have nothing to
giuliomoro@0 585 do with the present subject and are used as
giuliomoro@0 586 examples only.

giuliomoro@0 616 The rules about hierarchical headings discussed above for
giuliomoro@0 617 the body of the article are different in the appendices.
giuliomoro@0 618 In the \textbf{appendix} environment, the command
giuliomoro@0 619 \textbf{section} is used to
giuliomoro@0 620 indicate the start of each Appendix, with alphabetic order
giuliomoro@0 621 designation (i.e. the first is A, the second B, etc.) and
giuliomoro@0 622 a title (if you include one). So, if you need
giuliomoro@0 623 hierarchical structure
giuliomoro@0 624 \textit{within} an Appendix, start with \textbf{subsection} as the
giuliomoro@0 625 highest level. Here is an outline of the body of this
