8EMC <str<strong>on</strong>g>2007</str<strong>on</strong>g> ADVANCE PROGRAMDO WE HAVE A TECHNICAL PROGRAMFOR YOU AT EMC <str<strong>on</strong>g>2007</str<strong>on</strong>g>!D<strong>on</strong> Heirman, D<strong>on</strong> HEIRMAN C<strong>on</strong>sultantsTodd Hubing, Clems<strong>on</strong> UniversityTechnical Program Co-chairsOver 300 (yes 300!) papers weresubmitted for this year’s <str<strong>on</strong>g>symposium</str<strong>on</strong>g>in Hawai‘i. That’s more thandouble the number submitted for last year’s<str<strong>on</strong>g>symposium</str<strong>on</strong>g> and by far the largest numbersubmitted for any EMC <str<strong>on</strong>g>symposium</str<strong>on</strong>g> that wecould recall. As indicated in the advanceprogram <strong>on</strong> the EMC <str<strong>on</strong>g>2007</str<strong>on</strong>g> web site, justunder 250 papers were accepted - anotherrecord. But records d<strong>on</strong>’t mean as much asthe quality of the accepted papers, whichthis year was noticeably higher than previousyears. Your Society technical committeeswent out of their way to ensure thatpapers were of the highest caliber. Onetechnique that was employed to make thishappen was to institute a system thatallowed the authors to get the reviewers’comments for improvements, make the necessarychanges, and resubmit for a sec<strong>on</strong>dround of reviews. Those papers that wereresubmitted for the sec<strong>on</strong>d round were usuallysignificantly improved and met thehigh standard of quality required to beincluded in the technical program.This year, many of the papers are associatedwith “technical area tracks” to allow anattendee the opportunity to follow a specifictechnical area throughout the week. Thetechnical tracks that have been identifiedfor this program are:• Automotive EMC• EM Modeling Techniques• New EMC Measurement Technologies• Printed Circuit Board Design• PCB and System Modeling• Signal Integrity• System EMC Test• System EMC Design.In additi<strong>on</strong> to the wealth of technical papersubmissi<strong>on</strong>s, we had over two dozen proposalsfor workshops and tutorials, again arecord number. Twenty workshops/tutorialswill be offered <strong>on</strong> Sunday and M<strong>on</strong>day of the<str<strong>on</strong>g>symposium</str<strong>on</strong>g> week, covering such topics as:• EMC and EM Modeling Fundamentals• Test Site Validati<strong>on</strong> Above 1 GHz• Advanced EMC Materials and Designs• Power and Signal Integrity• EMC and Wireless Devices• Managing Regulatory Access to the Asia-Pacific MarketsA very special workshop given by the IECAdvisory Committee <strong>on</strong> EMC (ACEC)focusing <strong>on</strong> “a c<strong>on</strong>versati<strong>on</strong> with ACEC” <strong>on</strong>their work and the work of IEC TC77(immunity focus) and IEC/CISPR (emissi<strong>on</strong>focus).The ACEC workshop will be held <strong>on</strong>M<strong>on</strong>day evening where there will not be anyparallel workshop/tutorial activity so thatmany who are not familiar with the <str<strong>on</strong>g>internati<strong>on</strong>al</str<strong>on</strong>g>EMC standardizati<strong>on</strong> program cancome and hear what that is all about.Since this is also the 50th anniversary ofthe Society, we have set aside a special sessi<strong>on</strong>that will focus <strong>on</strong> historical papers,including the following topics:• System Level Electromagnetic Envir<strong>on</strong>mentSimulati<strong>on</strong>s• Military Aircraft EMC in the UnitedKingdom• EMC Absorbers Through the Years andTheir Impact <strong>on</strong> New Site Validati<strong>on</strong>Techniques• The History of Integrated Circuit EMC• 50 Years of EMC at Georgia Institute ofTechnologyAnother exciting area is our invited speakerspecial sessi<strong>on</strong>s. This year is especiallyimportant since special sessi<strong>on</strong> papers werepeer reviewed in the same manner as theopen call for papers. So key technical expertswill present the cream of the crop of specialsessi<strong>on</strong> papers. Here is a partial list ofspecial sessi<strong>on</strong> topics:• Power Integrity/Signal Integrity for NextGenerati<strong>on</strong> Systems• Industry Standard Cables and ShieldingPerformance• Emerging EMC Technologies in Japan• Automotive EMC• EMC/EM Effects in Waveform DiversityApplicati<strong>on</strong>s• Advanced EMC MeasurementsA new additi<strong>on</strong> to the technical programthis year is the Global EMC University. Theobjective of this special track is to provide acomprehensive discussi<strong>on</strong> of the basic c<strong>on</strong>ceptsand skills that are used in the EMCprofessi<strong>on</strong>. Clayt<strong>on</strong> Paul and FlavioCanavero are in charge of this event, whichis open to a limited number of attendeeswho sign up ahead of the <str<strong>on</strong>g>symposium</str<strong>on</strong>g>. Moreinformati<strong>on</strong> <strong>on</strong> the Global EMC Universityand the rest of the technical program can befound in the following pages and <strong>on</strong> the c<strong>on</strong>ferencewebsite at http://www.emc<str<strong>on</strong>g>2007</str<strong>on</strong>g>.org.In summary this is a “can’t miss” <str<strong>on</strong>g>symposium</str<strong>on</strong>g>,not <strong>on</strong>ly for the outstanding technicalprogram, but to also celebrate a halfcenturyof our EMC Society. We are lookingforward to seeing you in Hawai’i!Carl Baum, recipient of the <str<strong>on</strong>g>2007</str<strong>on</strong>g> IEEE Electromagnetics Award, will present a speciallecture <strong>on</strong> Wednesday, July 11, from 12:30 - 1:30 pm at the Hawai'i C<strong>on</strong>venti<strong>on</strong> Centertitled: Low- and High-Frequency Soluti<strong>on</strong>s of the Telegrapher Equati<strong>on</strong>s for N<strong>on</strong>uniformMultic<strong>on</strong>ductor Transmissi<strong>on</strong> Lines. All <str<strong>on</strong>g>symposium</str<strong>on</strong>g> registrants are invited to attend.©<str<strong>on</strong>g>2007</str<strong>on</strong>g> IEEE www.emc<str<strong>on</strong>g>2007</str<strong>on</strong>g>.org
