APEC 2006 to Focus on the Future of Power; Call for Papers Issued for Leading Power Conference; Power Industry Plans Expanded Event for New Orleans in February, 2006.WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC APEC in full Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Trade group established in 1989 in response to the growing interdependence of Asia-Pacific economies and the advent of regional economic blocs (such as the European Union and the North American Free Trade Area) ), the leading worldwide conference and exhibit for practicing power electronics professionals, has issued a call for papers for APEC 2006. Scheduled for February 19-23, 2006, in New Orleans, the conference will feature top business and technology leaders as they focus on driving innovation and design application of power electronics. The conference is jointly sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields. ) Power Electronics Society (PELS PELS Postgraduate Education Loan Scheme (Australia) PELS Professional Engineer and Land Surveyor ), the IEEE Industry Applications Society (IAS See iPlanet Application Server. 1. (computer) IAS - The first modern computer. It had main registers, processing circuits, information paths within the central processing unit, and used Von Neumann's fetch-execute cycle. ) and the Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA PSMA Public Sector Mapping Agencies (Australia) PSMA Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen PSMA Power Sources Manufacturers Association PSMA Pakistan Sugar Mills Association PSMA Professional Services Management Association ). Celebrating its 20th year with a record attendance, APEC 2005 featured 328 peer-reviewed papers presented by speakers from 28 different countries. Following the success of this year's conference, APEC 2006 has issued a call for papers in the following areas: --AC-DC Power Supplies -- single phase and multiphase ac-dc power supplies, power factor correction Power factor correction (PFC) is a technique of counteracting the undesirable effects of electric loads that create a power factor that is less than 1. Power factor correction may be applied either by an electrical power transmission utility to improve the stability and efficiency , multi-level active front end conversion --DC-DC Converters -- low voltage to low voltage conversion, high voltage, high power (kW to MW), microprocessor power (VRMs) --DC-AC Inverters -- dc to single phase, dc to multiphase, multilevel inverters --Motor Drives for induction machines, permanent magnet machines, switched reluctance machines --Power Semiconductors, Energy Storage Components and Sensors --Energy Storage Components including magnetics, capacitors, batteries and chargers --Mechanical Components including connectors, bus bars, substrates, thermal management --Physical Design and Packaging topics including thermal management, integration of design tools, physical design, packaging, EMI and EMC (1) (EMC Corporation, Hopkinton, MA, www.emc.com) The leading supplier of storage products for midrange computers and mainframes. Founded in 1979 by Richard J. Egan and Roger Marino, EMC has developed advanced storage and retrieval technologies for the world's largest companies. --Modeling, Simulation and Control of power supplies, electric machines and drives, power systems --Business Issues such as marketing, manufacturing, quality, test, power electronics business issues, DFx, standards and regulations Deadline for submission of paper abstracts is July 25, 2005. Authors will be notified of acceptance no later than October 10, 2005. For more information or to begin the submission process, visit: http://www.apec-conf.org/2006/APEC06_Call_For_Papers.html |
