string effect

Hi,

since a long time now, i see that some paragraphs of text are cut off and
the additional text is replaced by 3 dots.
e.g:

"this is the original long text but without any sense and also stupid"

effect desired :
"this is the original long text..."

this is usually used for title articles or some long paragraphs.
What is the basic rule ?
Text is cut off based on (numbers of words, number of characters,..) ?
what is the algorithm for such thing ?

thanks a lot,
