These instructions are to be followed in preparing your EXTENDED ABSTRACT, which is what you must submit if you want that your work appears as a CONTRIBUTIVE TALK or a POSTER:

INPE – National Institute for Space Research
São José dos Campos – SP – Brazil – July 26-30, 2010

TITLE

First Author1, Second Author2, Third Author3

1Affiliation, city, country, e-mail
2Affiliation, city, country, e-mail
3Affiliation, city, country, e-mail

keywords: First word, second word, third word. (maximum of five).

1. BASIC INFORMATION

The extended abstracts should be written in English. Begin the extended abstract with the title, which should be brief and self-explanatory. In the header, put the author name(s) in a single line if possible, separated by commas. The name of the author that will present the work must be underlined. The affiliations should be informed in a summarized way, using different lines. Connect the name of each author with his affiliation by means of a numeric calling (superscript).

At least the first keyword must be chosen among the following topics: Applications in Engineering and Nanoscience; Applications of Dynamical Systems in Medicine and Health Sciences; Applications of Nonlinear Sciences; Astrodynamics; Bifurcation theory and analysis; Celestial Mechanics; Chaos in Hamiltonian Systems; Chaotic Dynamics; Climate Dynamics; Collective Phenomena; Communication with Chaos; Complex Networks; Control of Chaos and applications; DNA Translocation Dynamics; Dynamics of Biosystems; Dynamics of Granular Materials; Fluid Dynamics, Plasma and Turbulence; Formation and Dynamics of Patterns; Neuronal Dynamics; Optoelectronic and Granular Matter; Population Dynamics and Epidemiology; Self-organization; Stochastic Dynamics; Synchronization; Time series analysis.

The main body of the extended abstract should present: (i) the problem and describe the state of art in the area, as well as the proposed solution and their merits; (ii) The methods and procedures used in the research and the obtained (experimental or simulated) results; (iii) The obtained results should be compared with the ones obtained by other authors, discussing the advantages and limitations of the proposed solution;.(iv) The results, the restrictions to the application of the method and the possibility of applying the results.

Acknowledgments can be expressed briefly after the main body of the extended abstract. At the end, the list of bibliographic references must be added.

2. PREPARATION OF THE EXTENDED ABSTRACT

The extended abstract should be edited in one to two A4 pages format (21.0 x 29.7 cm). The upper and lower margins should be of 25 mm; the left margin 20 mm and the right one 12 mm. The text must be written in two columns of 86 mm each, with a space of 6 mm between the columns.

2.1. Text

Use font Times New Roman, in sizes and styles detailed in Table 1:

Table 1 – Sizes (in points) and font styles.

The main text must be edited with single spacing and justified to occupy the total width of the column. Where subscripts or superscripts are used, the spacing must be increased to avoid superposition of adjacent lines. Leave an additional space of 6 points below each paragraph. Format the section titles to have 12 free points above and 6 points below them; the item titles must have 6 free points above and 6 points below them. Leave a free lines between: a) the name of the seminar and the title of the extended abstract (two lines of 10 points); b) the title of the extended abstract and the author name(s) (10 points); c) the names and the affiliations (10 points); d) the affiliations and the beginning of the text (two lines of 10 points).

2.2. Tables and figures

The tables and figures (drawings, diagrams, graphics and photos) should be inserted in the page where they are presented and discussed for the first time. Insert the tables and figures in a centered position, preferably at the beginning or at the end of the columns. Big tables and figures may occupy both columns.

Tables and figures must be numbered and referenced in the text and must always have an explanatory legend. The legends must be placed above the tables and below the figures, centered in the column.


Figure 1 – Example of figure

The figures may be in black and white or in color. Color figures will be reproduced in the proceedings in tons of gray. In all graphs, abscissas and ordinates must be identified with symbols and units. Care must be taken in using values at the scales so that they keep readable when the graph is reduced to fit in the column. It is recommended to insert the figures in such a way that they produce a file with the smallest size possible.

2.3. Equations

The equations must be numbered consecutively through the text. Equation numbers must be put into parenthesis and shifted to the right as showed in the following example:

Use the appropriate mathematical symbols to make your equations more compact.

2.4. Writing style

Use a clear technical language. When dealing with metrological concepts, use the International Vocabulary of Metrology. Use the International System of Units (SI). Other units, if unavoidable, should be used as secondary units and written into parenthesis, except when they are units that, although belonging to the SI, are used as commercial identifiers (e.g. 3-inch diskettes). Units symbols must be in normal style; symbols of quantities in italic style.

2.5. References style

List and number all the bibliographical references in the order they appear in the text, immediately after the last section of the text (or Conclusion) or after the acknowledgments if there is one. Leave a 6 points space between consecutive references. See examples of recommended citation styles in [1–3].

Works not yet published should be cited as “to appear” when they were already accepted for publication, and as “not published” when submitted for publication but not yet accepted.

The calling in the text have to be made only with the reference number between brackets (e.g. [1]). If wish to mention the authors of a work in the text, give the names of all of them, unless they are more than six. In this case use the name of the first one and add “et al.”

3. CONCLUSION

Follow these instructions carefully in preparing your paper. Use the congress Web site to send the electronic version of the file in Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) format and Microsoft Word (.doc) or Latex (.tex) format. The files should be named by your last and first author’s name jointed together and the appropriate extension (example: Silva_Jose.doc).

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Thank you for your cooperation in accepting these instructions. The success of the South America Dynamics Days 2010 will also be constructed in the small details. We are waiting for your important contribution.
