Association for Computing Machinery Conference Proceedings Style: Numbered References
In text Citation:
The ACM conference proceedings reference style makes use of numbers enclosed in square brackets within the text. This number corresponds to the reference list found at the end of the chapter where the references are arranged alphabetically by Author’s last name and sequentially numbered. For example:

Please see the document below for help with the putting together the reference list using ACM.
Please note: The ACM conference proceeding citation style is a divergent style that is used in various ways throughout the ACM conference proceedings. The below examples serve as guidelines for the use thereof and should only be used as such. The important thing to remember for good referencing is to always be consistent.
