Paper Numbering: Proceedings of SPIE follow an e-First publication model, with papers published first
online and then in print and on CD-ROM. Papers are published as they are submitted and meet
publication criteria. A unique, consistent, permanent citation identifier (CID) number is assigned to
each article at the time of the first publication. Utilization of CIDs allows articles to be fully citable as
soon they are published online, and connects the same identifier to all online, print, and electronic
versions of the publication. SPIE uses a six-digit CID article numbering system in which:
The first four digits correspond to the SPIE volume number.
The last two digits indicate publication order within the volume using a Base 36 numbering
system employing both numerals and letters. These two-number sets start with 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05,
06, 07, 08, 09, 0A, 0B … 0Z, followed by 10-1Z, 20-2Z, etc.
The CID number appears on each page of the manuscript. The complete citation is used on the first
page, and an abbreviated version on subsequent pages. Numbers in the index correspond to the last
two digits of the six-digit CID number.
