The allowed typing area is 17.8 cm (7 '') by 24.1 cm (9.5 '').
The left margin should be 1.6 cm for A4 paper and 0.63 '' for 8.5'' by 11'' paper (US Letter).
The top margin should be 2.8 cm for A4 paper and 0.34 '' for 8.5'' by 11'' paper.
(The page will be slightly magnified before printing.)

The style of references, equations, figures, tables, etc., should be the same as for the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory.

The affiliation shown for authors should constitute a sufficient mailing address for persons who wish to write for more details about the paper.
