hi-TeCh evenTS www.us-tech.com Anaheim to Host Autotestcon IEEE SmartGridComm, Taiwan


Anaheim, CA — Autotestcon is the world’s premier conference that brings together the military/aero- space automatic test industry and government/military acquirers and users to share new technologies, dis- cuss innovative applications, and exhibit products and services. It is sponsored annually by the IEEE. The Theme this year is “Mission Assurance through Advanced ATE”. Autotestcon will be held at the


Disneyland Resort and Conference Center in Anaheim, California, on September 10-13, 2012. The Technical Program will be deter- mined by the interests of those par- ticipants submitting for publication and presentation a technical paper or organizing a technical session. Papers and sessions should cover appropriate topics dealing with System Readiness in general and Automatic Test technology in partic- ular. Abstracts for technical papers are now being solicited, as are pro-


posals for technical sessions. This will be the 48th edition of


the Systems Readiness Technology Conference that is commonly known as Autotestcon. This major confer- ence and exposition provides focus on the maintenance aspects of systems readiness and providing Mission Assurance through Advanced ATE. This includes Maintenance Repair & Overhaul as well as factory and development automated test equip- ment. We will gather the military and aerospace industry principals together to share new concepts, tech- nologies and applications in this essential field of supportability and sustainability. We will have the opportunity to see exciting new prod- ucts from a wide variety of exhibitors, and to meet with senior military and aerospace leaders to discuss their future needs and expec- tations and the ways in which we can satisfy those needs.

New York, NY — The IEEE International Conference on Smart Grid Communications (SmartGrid - Comm), the leading international forum dedicated to advancing the world’s power delivery infrastruc- ture, is scheduled to be held November 5-8, 2012 in Tainan City, Taiwan.”The smart grid, as one of the key enabling technologies to sig- nificantly enhance power grid effi- ciency and protect our environment, is destined to reshape the world and make all of our future lives better,” says the honorary general chair of IEEE SmartGridComm 2012, Prof. Hwung-Hweng Hwung, President of National Cheng Kung University. “The development of smart grid tech- nologies requires a joint R&D effort of the people working in almost all electrical engineering disciplines, including power, control, informa- tion, and communications.


“The 2012 IEEE International


Conference on Smart Grid Communications (SmartGridComm 2012) is designed to provide a won- derful opportunity for worldwide leading experts to showcase their state-of-the-art research results in Tainan, which is home to the National Cheng Kung University (NCKU) and one of the key research universities in Taiwan.” Held in Brussels, Belgium, last


year’s event was highlighted by the presentation of nearly 150 technical sessions, keynotes, panels, tutorials and workshops. In all, hundreds of paper submissions were received from authors from 39 different coun- tries. Among the chosen submissions were discussions of “Advanced Metering Over Wide Area Cellular Networks,” “Energy Delivery Trans -
