Quick Start: LaTeX Bibliography - BibTeX

1. LaTex Template: download and extract to latex_template
ex: IEEE template (http://www.ieee.org/documents/windows_latex_template.zip)
2. Bibliography style: download and extract to latex_template folder
ex: IEEE style (http://www.ieee.org/documents/IEEEtranBST.zip)
3. Create a BibTeX file example.bib by several ways:
- Many articles have their own BibTeX code to download
- Use a text editor, ex: TexMaker (http://www.xm1math.net/texmaker/)
- Use a References Management software, ex: JabRef (http://jabref.sourceforge.net/)
4. Cite references
- A reference consists of a Bibtexkey (e.g., Han:2011) and other infos
- Cite in a document by \cite{Han:2011}

Quick Start: Graph with Matlab

Prepare data in file ttidata.m

1 157 1851 (separated by TAB)
2 203 1864
3 250 1866
4 281 1869
5 313 2187
6 344 2713
7 359 2716
8 375 2942
9 406 3039
10 453 3301

Draw (x, y) and (x, z) graphs on the same canvas

load ttidata.m
y = ttidata(:,2);
z = ttidata(:,3);
plot([1:length(y)],y,'g-x')
hold on
plot([1:length(z)],z,'g-x')

Quick Start: LaTeX

Environment Preparation
1. LaTex package: download and install
- MiKTex: http://miktex.org/
2. LaTex editor: download and install
- TexMaker: http://www.xm1math.net/texmaker/
3. Template: download and extract
- IEEEtran: http://www.ieee.org/documents/windows_latex_template.zip

Hello World
1. Open bare_jrnl.tex in the IEEEtran template with TexMaker and edit it as you wish.
2. Build the document by F6 (PDFLaTeX) and view F7 (View PDF)
