Second-Annual Smart Grid Electronics Forum — Call for Papers
We wanted to remind you that a Call for Papers has been issued for the second-annual Smart Grid Electronics Forum (SGEF’11) which will be jointly hosted by Darnell Group and Hearst Electronics Group, October 24-26, 2011, in San Jose, California.
While Control, Storage, Communications and Security will be four of the major themes of SGEF ’11, the successful deployment of the smart grid will depend upon numerous technology and standards developments for electronic equipment. To participate in enabling the Smart Grid, find the call for papers at: http://elecp-media.com/portal/wts/cemcfMaCqB6baFkzqf6F3ba9iRfU6b
This focused three-day international forum will serve the needs of an audience of decision makers and technology developers who are interested in learning about and contributing to practical advancements related to the emerging smart grid. The SGEF will be broadly targeted at all segments of the electronics industry including: Communications, Computing/Storage, Consumer, Power Conversion, Automotive, Alternative Energy, among others. Stake holders in the electric utility industry, regulatory bodies, government agencies, and standard-setting organizations will also be included in the target audience.
The primary areas of coverage will be the need for Control, Storage, Communications and Security for deployment of the smart grid and the impact of those requirements on the design of future generations of electronic equipment. Within those broad areas, specific focus (paper topics) may include: Integration of distributed generation resources, micro grids, power systems communications, power quality, instrumentation and monitoring, networking/embedded processing, circuit design requirements, communications standards and protocols, development and integration of smart appliances and loads, enabling demand side management, supporting plug-in hybrid vehicles, large-scale energy storage, advanced metering infrastructure, visualization technologies, real-time control methods, and so on.
In each case, the types of papers being sought include:
• Case studies/industry examples
• Design techniques and tools
• Technology developments
• Standards development activities
Among the major constituencies served by this unique event are: Individuals interested in networking/embedded processing, circuit design requirements, communications standards and protocols, development and integration of smart appliances and loads, enabling demand side management, the integration of distributed generation resources, micro grids, power systems communications, power quality, instrumentation and monitoring, supporting plug-in hybrid vehicles, large-scale energy storage, advanced metering infrastructure, visualization technologies, real-time control methods, and others.
