IEEEtran.bst is the official BibTeX style for authors of the Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Transactions journals and
conferences.

It also may have applications for other academic work such as theses and
technical reports. The alphanumeric and natbib variants extend the
applicability of the IEEEtran bibstyle family to the natural sciences
and beyond.

The IEEEtran bibstyle is a very comprehensive BibTeX style which provides
many features beyond the standard BibTeX styles, including full support
for references of online documents, patents, periodicals and standards.
See the provided user manual for detailed usage information.

The latest version of the IEEEtran BibTeX style can be found at CTAN:

http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/IEEEtran/bibtex/

as well as within IEEE's site:

http://www.ieee.org/

Note that the packages at IEEE's site do not contain the natbib and
alphanumeric variants (e.g., IEEEtranN.bst, etc.) as these are not used
for IEEE related work. These files can be obtained on CTAN.

Version 1.12 (2007/01/11) changes:

 1. Fixed bug with unwanted comma before "et al." when an entry contained
    more than two author names. Thanks to Pallav Gupta for reporting this.

 2. Fixed bug with anomalous closing quote in tech reports that have a
    type, but without a number or address. Thanks to Mehrdad Mirreza for
    reporting this.

 3. Use braces in \providecommand in begin.bib to better support
    latex2html. TeX style length assignments OK with recent versions
    of latex2html - 1.71 (2002/2/1) or later is strongly recommended.
    Use of the language field still causes trouble with latex2html.
    Thanks to Federico Beffa for reporting this.

 4. Added IEEEtran.bst ID and version comment string to .bbl output.

 5. Provide a \BIBdecl hook that allows the user to execute commands
    just prior to the first entry.

 6. Use default urlstyle (is using url.sty) of "same" rather than rm to
    better work with a wider variety of bibliography styles.

 7. Changed month abbreviations from Sept., July and June to Sep., Jul.,
    and Jun., respectively, as IEEE now does. Thanks to Moritz Borgmann
    for reporting this.

 8. Control entry types should not be considered when calculating longest
    label width.

 9. Added alias www for electronic/online.

10. Updated full and abbreviated journal name string definitions in
    IEEEfull.bib and IEEEabrv.bib.

11. New IEEEtranSA.bst, IEEEtranN.bst, and IEEEtranSN.bst variants for
    alphanumeric citation tags and natbib compatibility.

README                 - This file.

IEEEtran_bst_HOWTO.pdf - The user manual.

IEEEtran.bst           - The standard IEEEtran BibTeX style file. For use
                         with IEEE work.

IEEEtranS.bst          - A version of IEEEtran.bst that sorts the entries.
                         Some IEEE conferences/publications may use/allow
                         sorted bibliographies.

IEEEexample.bib        - An example BibTeX database that contains the
                         references shown in the user manual.

IEEEabrv.bib           - String definitions for the abbreviated names of
                         IEEE journals. (For use with IEEE work.)
                         
IEEEfull.bib           - String definitions for the full names of IEEE
                         journals. (Do not use for IEEE work.)


Carried on CTAN only, for non-IEEE related work:

IEEEtranSA.bst         - Like IEEEtranS.bst, but with alphanumeric citation
                         tags like alpha.bst. Not for normal IEEE use.

EEEtranN.bst          - Like IEEEtran.bst, but based on plainnat.bst and
                         is compatible with Patrick W. Daly's natbib
                         package. Not for normal IEEE use.

IEEEtranSN.bst         - Sorting version of IEEEtranN.bst. Not for normal
                         IEEE use
