Bell Labs Technical Journal
Instructions to Authors
GENERAL
The Bell Labs Technical Journal publishes papers and letters on themes that have been decided upon by the Journal ’s Editorial Board. Once the Board has selected the themes for a given year, papers/letters for a particular issue are selected through a call for papers that is broadly publicized within Alcatel-Lucent's technical community at designated points in the year.
The Journal publishes original material; its contents are copyrighted by Alcatel-Lucent. It cannot publish a paper/letter that has been previously copyrighted or already submitted to others for publication, as in proceedings or transactions of organizations or other bodies. If a Journal manuscript is the same as, or approximates, a paper/letter that has been or will be copyrighted, then both its content and its graphics must be reworked.
The Journal ’s current policy requires that authors be members of Alcatel-Lucent’s technical community. In special instances, however, authors from outside the company may co-author a paper/letter with Alcatel-Lucent authors. These special instances include situations in which the outside authors have a clear, formal relationship with Alcatel-Lucent work and authors (for example, internships and contractor or customer relationships).
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
All papers/letters must be submitted in English. Authors who do not have a good command of English are advised to seek assistance from someone who has before submitting a manuscript.
Manuscripts must be submitted in Microsoft Word 2000 or higher.
When preparing the manuscript, authors should refer to a recent (2002 onwards) issue of the Journal and follow the detailed instructions given below.
After peer review, manuscripts that have been accepted for publication should be submitted to the Guest Editor for the issue. The Guest Editor will forward the manuscripts to:

MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION
Length
Papers should not normally exceed 7,000 words; letters should not exceed 1,750 words. Any manuscript that is too long will be returned to the corresponding (contact) author for redrafting within a suggested minimum wordage.
Typescript
Manuscripts should be in 10-point type with double spacing and 1-inch-wide left and right margins. Do not underline any headings. Do not use footnotes or endnotes.
Layout
The main body of the paper should be divided into unnumbered sections and each given an appropriate heading. Place main headings on a separate line in bold font at the left margin preceded by (head 1) ; place second-level headings on a separate line in bold font at the left margin preceded by (head 2) ; place each third-level heading at the beginning of the first line of the section it heads in bold font preceded by (head 3) and followed by a period.
Each level must have at least two heads (for example, head 1, head 2, head 3, head 3, head 2, head 1, head 2, head 2, head 2). Do not extend levels below the third level.
Manuscripts submitted to the Journal should conform as far as possible to the pattern prescribed below.
Title. This should explain the nature of the work in concise, specific terms. Avoid the use of “clever” titles that are characteristic of marketing and promotional literature.
Authors’ names. Each author should have the customary forename, middle initial(s), and surname (for example, Susan B. Stevens, Vijay T. Doshi). Nicknames and other familiar or shortened forms of a proper name—for example, Everett C. (“Chuck”) Mallory—are not appropriate for the Journal. Give full contact information (location address, phone number, fax number, e-mail address) for each author.
Abstract. This must be informative, yet concise. In one paragraph of 150 words or fewer, the abstract should summarize the work and results, give its significance, and let the reader know why the work is important. As abstracts are often published as standalone pieces in journal abstracts or other publications, the abstract should be intelligible in itself. It should not contain numbered references.
Introduction. Include a clear description of the aims of the paper/letter (without summarizing the work itself) and a brief statement of previous relevant work with references.
Body. This contains the essential details of the work. Components of the body include:
* A description of components or subjects
* Performance and test results
* A comparison with other solutions, emphasizing advantages, user needs, and features
* Other relevant data, including problems overcome, remaining problems, and possible future developments
Conclusion(s). This summarizes the paper without merely repeating the content of previous sections. A statement of future work is often merged with the conclusion.
Acknowledgment(s). Where applicable, acknowledge the contributions colleagues or associates have made to the work.
Trademarks and service marks. List the credits for trademarks and service marks used in the paper/letter that are not Alcatel-Lucent trademarks/service marks. (Alcatel-Lucent trademarks/service marks are indicated with the appropriate symbol in the title, upon first reference in the abstract, upon first reference in Panel 1 [“Abbreviations, Acronyms, and Terms”], and upon first reference in the paper/letter. Trademarks and service marks of other companies/organizations are identified with an asterisk after the mark and a note at the end of the paper/letter.)
References. The Journal ’s audiences are external to Alcatel-Lucent as well as internal, and any references used in the paper/letter should be accessible to all. Avoid making references to internal documents such as Technical Memorandums (TMs) and Internal Memorandums (IMs). These are proprietary unless they have been specially released.
The Journal uses a modified American Mathematical Society (AMS) style for references. Indicate references in the text by Arabic numbers in brackets [1] before any punctuation [2]. Each number should refer to only one reference. List the references in alphabetical order (see, for instance, the reference examples listed below) at the end of the paper. Give all the authors with their first and middle initials and their surnames. Do not use “et al.” as a substitute for authors’ names. Abbreviate journal titles as listed in the AMS “Abbreviations of Names of Serials,” available at http://www.ams.org/msnhtml/serials.pdf; if the journal is not included, give the title in full. Note carefully the style, order, and other particulars:
[1] D. C. Dowden, R. D. Gitlin, and R. L. Martin, “Next-Generation Networks,” Bell Labs Tech. J., 3:4 (1998), 3–14.
The journal article is in quotes (with initial caps for first and last words and all other words except articles, coordinating conjunctions, prepositions of four letters or fewer, and the to in infinitives) followed by a comma; the journal title is not in italics; the volume number is in regular type followed by a colon and the issue number in regular type and a comma; the year is in parentheses, followed by a comma and inclusive page numbers.
The reference list should include only those references that are actually cited within the paper/letter. Other references that are relevant to the paper/letter may be included in a separate list under a “Further Reading” heading.
The reference examples below give the style for a variety of reference types.
