\section{Introduction}
These are the instructions for preparing a CMBEC Abstract. Read the instructions in this sample paper carefully before typing; this template is based on the IFMBE template. Authors must upload their abstract in PDF format through the conference management system.
\section{Writing the Paper}
\textit{Length:} The maximum document size for abstracts is \textbf{one page.}
\textit{Page Layout:} Type the paper in two columns 85.5 mm wide with a space of 6 mm between the columns. Each column should be left and right justified.
\textit{Fonts:} Use Roman typeface (e.g. Times, Times New Roman) and single line spacing throughout the paper.
\textit{Title:} The title should be no longer than two lines.
\textit{Style:} Use separate sections with headings as required.
\textit{Headings:} Enumerate Headings by Roman numbers (I., II., etc.). For Chapter Headings use ALL CAPS. First letter of Chapter Heading is font size 12, regular and other letters are font 8 regular style.
\textit{Body Text:} Use Roman typeface (10 point regular) throughout. Start a new paragraph by indenting it from the left margin by 4 mm (and not by inserting a blank line).

\end{table}
\textit{Tables:} Insert tables where appropriate. Enumerate them consecutively using Arabic numbers and provide a caption for each table (e.g. Table~\ref{table1}, Table 2,..). Use font 10 regular for Table caption, 1\textsuperscript{st} letter, and font 8 regular for the rest of table caption and table legend. Place table captions and table legend above the table.
\textit{Figures:} Insert figures where appropriate. Enumerate them consecutively using Arabic numbers and provide a caption for each figure (e.g. Fig. 1, Fig. 2,..). Do not use characters smaller than 8 points within figures. Figure~\ref{figure1} is intended to illustrate the positioning of a figure and shows the logo of the CMBES.

\textit{Equations:} For inserting equations, use the equation environment. Enumerate the equations using Arabic numbers in brackets on the right hand side of the equation.
\begin{equation}
A+B=C
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
X=A\times e^{xt}+21kt
\end{equation}
\textit{References:} Use Arabic numbers in square brackets to number references in such order as they appear in the text . List them in numerical order as presented under the heading REFERENCES at the end of
this Instructions \cite{smith99, south01, lock03}.
