The abstract should be ONE page long. Use A4 page set-up and make all margins (top, bottom, left, right) 20 mm wide. Use 10 pt Times New Roman font (except for the title which should be in 12 pt bold). Centre the title, the authors’ names, the addresses, associated conference topics, keywords and contact email address. Please compose a title that clearly and succinctly describes the content of your work, in order to maximise its impact. 
	Start each paragraph, except the first, with an indent. Justify the body of the text both left and right. Do not use page numbers. Keywords and listing of associated conference topics are there to draw attention to your abstract, and to help the organisers allocate the presentation to the most appropriate session. 
	Figures can be in colour or in black and white. Ensure that Figures and Tables have a caption.
	References should be made in the style (Book, 2004), Proc & Conf (2015) or as First et al (2017). Examples of references are shown below. Leave a blank line above the list of references, and also above the acknowledgements.
