NOTES (O) -- Miscellaneous free text.

        Format:   NOTES:: 

        Example:  NOTES:: This report is the full version of the
                        paper with the same title in IEEE Trans ASSP
                        Dec 1976


ABSTRACT (O) -- Highly recommended, but not mandatory.  Even
        though no limit is defined for its length, it is suggested
        not to expect applications to be able to handle more than
        10,000 characters.

        The ABSTRACT is expected to be used for subject searching
        since titles are not enough.  Even if the report is not in
        English, an English ABSTRACT is preferable.  If no formal
        abstract appears on document, the producers of the
        bibliographic records are encouraged to use pieces of the
        introduction, first paragraph, etc.

        Format:  ABSTRACT:: xxxx .............. xxxxxxxx
                            xxxx .............. xxxxxxxx

                            xxxx .............. xxxxxxxx
                            xxxx .............. xxxxxxxx

END (M) -- This is a mandatory field.  It must be the last entry
        of a record, identifying the record that it ends, by stating
        the same ID that was used at the beginning of the records,
        in its "ID::".

        Format:   END:: XXX//YYY

        Example:  END:: OUKS//CS-TR-91-123


             >>>>>>>   [END OF FORMAT DEFINITION]   <<<<<<<


A Note Regarding the Controlled Symbols of the Publishers

   In order to avoid conflicts among the symbols of the publishing
   organizations (the XXX part of the "ID:: XXX//YYY") it is suggested
   that the various organizations that publish reports (such as
   universities, departments, and laboratories) register their
   <publisher-ID> symbols and names, in a way similar to the
   registration of other key parameters and names in the Internet.

   Rebecca Lasher (RLASHER@Forsythe.stanford.edu), of Stanford working
   with CNRI has agreed to coordinate this registration with the IANA
   for the publishers of Computer Science technical reports.  It is
   suggested that before using this format the publishing organizations
   would coordinate with her (by e-mail) their symbols and the names of
   their organizations.

   In order to help automated handling of the received bibliographic
   records, it is expected that the producers of bibliographic records
   will always use the same name, exactly, in the ORGANIZATION field.
