Abstract:
An abstract is required.
Acknowledgments: The standard form for acknowledgments is to mention first the funding source and second any readers or reviewers. The acknowledgments appear after the list of authors' affiliations and before the disclaimer on the inside front cover.
Authorship: Use the version of your names that you want to appear (the full formal name is most often expected). Make sure the names of your co-authors are also correct.
Footnotes: Footnotes rather than endnotes are standard. For footnotes in text or in tables, use the following symbols, in the order shown: *, †, ‡, §, ¶, #.
Footnotes within a publication are assigned in a single sequence, unless the publication is made up of many subparts (e.g., a proceedings). In such a complex manuscript, start a new footnote sequence in each section.
Place footnote characters outside punctuation.
Headings:
Four heading levels are usually enough. In the draft, you may number them
to keep them straight. However, they will not be numbered in the final
publication.
