    %% DEFAULTS FOR THE CONTROLS OF THE BST STYLE %%
    %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
    
    % These are the defaults for the user adjustable controls. The values used
    % here can be overridden by the user via IEEEtranBSTCTL entry type.
    
    % NOTE: The recommended LaTeX command to invoke a control entry type is:
    % 
    %\makeatletter
    %\def\bstctlcite{\@ifnextchar[{\@bstctlcite}{\@bstctlcite[@auxout]}}
    %\def\@bstctlcite[#1]#2{\@bsphack
    %  \@for\@citeb:=#2\do{%

    %    \if@filesw\immediate\write\csname #1\endcsname{\string\citation{\@citeb}}\fi}%
    %  \@esphack}
    %\makeatother
    %
    % It is called at the start of the document, before the first \cite, like:
    % \bstctlcite{IEEEexample:BSTcontrol}
    %
    % IEEEtran.cls V1.6 and later does provide this command.

    % This IEEEtran.bst features a very powerful and flexible mechanism for
    % controlling the capitalization, punctuation, spacing, quotation, and
    % newlines of the formatted entry fields. (Note: IEEEtran.bst does not need
    % or use the newline/newblock feature, but it has been implemented for
    % possible future use.) The output states of IEEEtran.bst consist of
    % multiple independent attributes and, as such, can be thought of as being
    % vectors, rather than the simple scalar values ("before.all", 
    % "mid.sentence", etc.) used in most other .bst files.
    % 
    % The more flexible and complex design used here was motivated in part by
    % the IEEE's rather unusual bibliography style. For example, the IEEE ends the
    % previous field item with a period and large space prior to the publisher
    % address; the @electronic entry types use periods as inter-item punctuation
    % rather than the commas used by the other entry types; and URLs are never
    % followed by periods even though they are the last item in the entry.
    % Although it is possible to accommodate these features with the conventional
    % output state system, the seemingly endless exceptions make for convoluted,
    % unreliable and difficult to maintain code.
    %
    % IEEEtran.bst's output state system can be easily understood via a simple
    % illustration of two most recently formatted entry fields (on the stack):
    %
    %               CURRENT_ITEM
    %               "PREVIOUS_ITEM
    %
    % which, in this example, is to eventually appear in the bibliography as:
    % 
    %               "PREVIOUS_ITEM," CURRENT_ITEM
    %
    % It is the job of the output routine to take the previous item off of the
    % stack (while leaving the current item at the top of the stack), apply its
    % trailing punctuation (including closing quote marks) and spacing, and then
    % to write the result to BibTeX's output buffer:
    % 
    %               "PREVIOUS_ITEM," 
    % 
    % Punctuation (and spacing) between items is often determined by both of the
    % items rather than just the first one. The presence of quotation marks
    % further complicates the situation because, in standard English, trailing
    % punctuation marks are supposed to be contained within the quotes.
    % 
    % IEEEtran.bst maintains two output state (aka "status") vectors which
    % correspond to the previous and current (aka "this") items. Each vector
    % consists of several independent attributes which track punctuation,
    % spacing, quotation, and newlines. Capitalization status is handled by a
    % separate scalar because the format routines, not the output routine,
    % handle capitalization and, therefore, there is no need to maintain the
    % capitalization attribute for both the "previous" and "this" items.
    % 
    % When a format routine adds a new item, it copies the current output status
    % vector to the previous output status vector and (usually) resets the
    % current (this) output status vector to a "standard status" vector. Using a
    % "standard status" vector in this way allows us to redefine what we mean by
    % "standard status" at the start of each entry handler and reuse the same
    % format routines under the various inter-item separation schemes. For
    % example, the standard status vector for the @book entry type may use
    % commas for item separators, while the @electronic type may use periods,
    % yet both entry handlers exploit many of the exact same format routines.
    % 
    % Because format routines have write access to the output status vector of
    % the previous item, they can override the punctuation choices of the
    % previous format routine! Therefore, it becomes trivial to implement rules
    % such as "Always use a period and a large space before the publisher." By
    % pushing the generation of the closing quote mark to the output routine, we
    % avoid all the problems caused by having to close a quote before having all
    % the information required to determine what the punctuation should be.
    %
    % The IEEEtran.bst output state system can easily be expanded if needed.
    % For instance, it is easy to add a "space.tie" attribute value if the
    % bibliography rules mandate that two items have to be joined with an
    % unbreakable space.

    %    papers, the \IEEEpeerreviewmaketitle command must be executed (will
    %    automatically be ignored for non-peerreview modes) at the place the
    %    cover page is to end, usually just after the abstract (keywords are
    %    not normally used with peer review papers). peerreviewca is like
    %    peerreview, but allows the author names to be entered and formatted
    %    as with conference mode so that author affiliation and contact
    %    information can be easily seen on the cover page.
    %    The default is journal.
    %
    % draft, draftcls, draftclsnofoot, final
    %    determines if paper is formatted as a widely spaced draft (for
    %    handwritten editor comments) or as a properly typeset final version.
    %    draftcls restricts draft mode to the class file while all other LaTeX
    %    packages (i.e., \usepackage{graphicx}) will behave as final - allows
    %    for a draft paper with visible figures, etc. draftclsnofoot is like
    %    draftcls, but does not display the date and the word "DRAFT" at the foot
    %    of the pages. If using one of the draft modes, the user will probably
    %    also want to select onecolumn.
    %    The default is final.
    %
    % letterpaper, a4paper, cspaper
    %    determines paper size: 8.5in X 11in, 210mm X 297mm or 7.875in X 10.75in.
    %    Changing the paper size in the standard journal and conference modes
    %    will not alter the typesetting of the document - only the margins will
    %    be affected. In particular, documents using the a4paper option will
    %    have reduced side margins (A4 is narrower than US letter) and a longer
    %    bottom margin (A4 is longer than US letter). For both cases, the top
    %    margins will be the same and the text will be horizontally centered.
    %    For the compsoc conference and draft modes, it is the margins that will
    %    remain constant, and thus the text area size will vary, with changes in
    %    the paper size.
    %    The cspaper option is the special ``trim'' paper size (7.875in x 10.75in)
    %    used in the actual publication of Computer Society journals. Under
    %    compsoc journal mode, this option does not alter the typesetting of the
    %    document. Authors should invoke the cspaper option only if requested to
    %    do so by the editors of the specific journal they are submitting to.
    %    For final submission to the IEEE, authors should generally use US letter 
    %    (8.5 X 11in) paper unless otherwise instructed. Note that authors should
    %    ensure that all post-processing (ps, pdf, etc.) uses the same paper
    %    specificiation as the .tex document. Problems here are by far the number
    %    one reason for incorrect margins. IEEEtran will automatically set the
    %    default paper size under pdflatex (without requiring any change to
    %    pdftex.cfg), so this issue is more important to dvips users. Fix
    %    config.ps, config.pdf, or ~/.dvipsrc for dvips, or use the
    %    dvips -t papersize option instead as needed. For the cspaper option,
    %    the corresponding dvips paper name is "ieeecs".
    %    See the testflow documentation
    %    http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/IEEEtran/testflow
    %    for more details on dvips paper size configuration.
    %    The default is letterpaper.
    %
    % oneside, twoside
    %    determines if layout follows single sided or two sided (duplex)
    %    printing. The only notable change is with the headings at the top of
    %    the pages.
    %    The default is oneside.
    %
    % onecolumn, twocolumn
    %    determines if text is organized into one or two columns per page. One
    %    column mode is usually used only with draft papers.
    %    The default is twocolumn.
    %
    % comsoc, compsoc, transmag
    %    Use the format of the IEEE Communications Society, IEEE Computer Society
    %    or IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, respectively.
    %
    % romanappendices
    %    Use the "Appendix I" convention when numbering appendices. IEEEtran.cls
    %    now defaults to Alpha "Appendix A" convention - the opposite of what
    %    v1.6b and earlier did.
    %
    % captionsoff
    %    disables the display of the figure/table captions. Some IEEE journals
    %    request that captions be removed and figures/tables be put on pages
    %    of their own at the end of an initial paper submission. The endfloat
    %    package can be used with this class option to achieve this format.
    %
    % nofonttune
    %    turns off tuning of the font interword spacing. Maybe useful to those
    %    not using the standard Times fonts or for those who have already "tuned"
    %    their fonts.
    %    The default is to enable IEEEtran to tune font parameters.
