There are many different styles / standards for the design of the list of references for publishing an article.

Here are examples: APA style, MLA style, The Chicago Manual of Style, Bluebook, ALWD Citation Manual, ASA style, Harvard referencing and Vancouver system, IEEE

But which style / standard is used to publish articles in the field of IT ( Computer Science ). In particular, I would like to publish an article on machine learning ( in English ). At the moment, I have not yet decided where I will be publishing it, but at this stage I would like the design to be presented in a format with which, in principle, most IT magazines are familiar. What standard of bibliography should be used for articles in the field of IT?

    As far as I know, different journals may use a different format for the design of the list of references. If you type articles, for example, in LaTeX, you will be able to apply various design styles to them, including reference lists. - Nick Volynkin ♦

In general, there is no time to deal with LaTeX . Used a free service to generate a list of references. You must select the object to which you refer (magazine, book, website, article) and specify all the necessary data (name, title of the magazine, authors, year of publication, publisher, etc.) and the site will generate for you a literary link in the standard you choose \ style (supported by many standards for the design of the list of references, including the popular ones: AMA, ASA, APA, MLA, Harvard, Chicago, APSA, Bluebook, OSCOLA, IEEE ). All your links are kept by you and do not disappear anywhere. At any time, if you need to change the standard, you change the standard with one click and your link changes to the desired format without additional adjustments. The best option. I chose the IEEE standard for myself, entered the necessary data and in one click the link was generated.

Here is the site:

RefME | Free Referencing Generator

Still there is this:

Cite This For Me: Reference Generator

but it is paid.

LaTeX is difficult for me for such an elementary thing as a literary link.

  • RefME has changed its owner. Therefore, it is possible that the service is no longer free. - Erba Aitbayev
