IEEE is the acronym for Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. It provides worldwide standards for the electronics industry. An IEEE format would therefore be a format accepted by the IEEE as universal.

If you are talking about a IEEE format for works cited page in a formal paper, the format would be (for a chapter in a book with one author):

1. P. Carter, "Electrics," In Backstage Handbook: an Illustrated Almanac of Technical Information. Louisville: Broadway Press, 1988, pp. 163-202.

Note: Do not use italics.

Cite all works in one list at the end of the paper, listing them in the order they appear in your paper. Do not repeat sources.

When quoting or referencing a source, use brackets in the format [a: b]; where "a" is the citation number, and "b" is the page. If mentioning an author cited, bracket with the format [a] Example:

Carter [1] believed that the lack of international color standardization was actually a boon to entertainment. The different colors provided by different gel manufacturers [1: 174] gave a wider field of options to lighting designers.

For more complete information on IEEE formating, most college websites have complete (and EXHAUSTIVE) material on the subject such as "How to cite a webpage with more than three authors" and "How to cite an email from my dog who has no last name."
