I am trying to format the bibliography for the first time, I have installed the IEEEtran package and everything is working except I have a couple of issues, they can be seen in the screenshot. Firstly, I don't understand why the opening quotation mark of the title is so weird — it is different from the closing one, takes much more space and looks awful. Secondly, the IEEE format does not imply double dashes in the pages numbering and I haven't had any luck finding how to change the automatic reformatting. I'd really appreciate someone helping me with these problems.
Here's the main doc code:
\documentclass[a4paper, 12pt]{article}
\usepackage[a4paper, left=3cm, top=2cm, right=1.5cm, bottom=2cm]{geometry}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{setspace}
\usepackage{ragged2e}
\onehalfspacing
\setmainfont{Times New Roman}
\begin{document}
\input{title}
\setcounter{page}{2}
%Abstract
\renewcommand{\abstractname}{\large Abstract}
\begin{abstract}
\normalsize
\singlespacing
Abstract here.
\end{abstract}
\onehalfspacing

And here's the references.bib:
\begin{document}

title = "Set-based Thinking in the Engineering Design Community and Beyond",
booktitle = "Proceedings of the ASME 2014 International Design Engineering Technical Conferences \& Computers and Information in Engineering Conference",

}
\end{document}
\documentclass{...}
and ending with\end{document}
.\begin{document}
and\end{document}
in your.bib
file? Apart from that I'm not able to reproduce the issues you've described. Try updating your packages.
