I'm a newbie in LaTeX and BibTeX and using ACM-Reference-Format in bibliographystyle like below code.
\bibliographystyle{ACM-Reference-Format}
\bibliography{sigproc}
The problem is that my reference is not in order…
I wrote the reference in order in sigproc.bib
but in actual Latex preview which is pdf format, it gives me mixed order.
Here is my sigproc.bib
that I wrote,
@MANUAL{Watson,
title = {Watson Internet of Things},
author = {IBM},
note = {\url{https://www.ibm.com/internet-of-things/iot-zones/iot-buildings/forum/}}
}
@MANUAL{Iso,
title = {Ergonomics of the thermal environment - Analytical determination and interpretation of thermal comfort using calculation of the PMV and PPD indices and local thermal comfort criteria},
author = {ISO(International Organization for Standardization},
month = {May},
year = 2005,
note = {\url{https://www.iso.org/standard/39155.html}}
}
@ARTICLE{Tachi,
author = {Tomokazu Tachikawa, Akihiro Oda, Toshihiko Handa, Jun'ichi Ichimura, Yuji Watanabe, Hiroaki Nishi},
title = {Cooperative Distributed Demand Control by Environmental Sensor Network - Estimating the Number of People by CO2 Concentration},
journal = {The IEEE International Conference on Industrial Informatics 2008 (INDIN2008)},
pages = {36-341},
month = {July},
year = {2008},
doi = {10.1109/INDIN.2008.4618119},
}
@ARTICLE{Knives,
author = {T. Handa, C. Roesener, J. Ichimura, H. Nishi},
title = {KNIVES: Network based Demand and Supply Control System},
journal = {The IEEE International Conference on Industrial Informatics 2007 (INDIN 2007)},
pages = {1171-1176},
month = {June},
year = {2007},
doi = {10.1109/INDIN.2007.4384896},
}
@BOOK{Japan,
author = {Environmetal science forum},
title = {Story of room air pollution},
publisher = {Japanese Standards Association},
address = {Japan},
month = {October},
year = 2002,
isbn = {4542902587}
}
However, it shows me like Iso
first, and then watson
as second. I want it to be like ordering as above itself.
How can I order the references?

The
ACM-Reference-Format
bibliography style is designed to sort the entries in alphabetical order by authors' surnames. (The sorting order in the bib file is irrelevant.) If alphabetical sorting by surnames is not what you want, you should probably not be using theACM-Reference-Format
bibliography style.Do note that one must use the keyword
and
to separate authors in theauthor
fields. Using commas isn't correct. BibTeX should have been issuing lots of warning messages to this effect -- did you notice them?A separate issue: Three of the five entries have so-called "corporate authors": "IBM", "ISO (International Organization for Standardization)", and "Environmental Science Forum". In order to assure that they're sorted correctly, it's necessary to encase these fields in double curly braces, as is done in the following example.
