11. References

Note that only permanent documents should be cited as references. Other items, such as Web pages or working groups, should be cited inline (i.e., see the Open Grid Forum, https://www.ogf.org) or as a footnote. In-text citations can refer to work in progress. To refer to a current working draft, an inline citation might simply read, (the XYZ working group has a draft in progress to address this topic. It may be found via the WG’s Web page at www.example.org). Hyperlinks to transient documents should be avoided (for example, a link to a current draft of a document should not be used, if the document is likely to be replaced in the near future)

References should conform to a standard such as used by IEEE[1], ACM[2], MLA[3], Chicago[4] or similar. Include an author, year, title, publisher, place of publication. For online materials, also add a URL and an access date. It may be useful, but is not required to separate out “normative references,” as described in [BUSH].
