IEEE
Industry Applications Society 39th Annual Meeting
Westin Hotel, Seattle, Washington, USA
October
3-7, 2004
Organized by
The IEEE Industry Applications Society
The Thirty Ninth Annual Meeting
of the IEEE Industry Applications Society (IAS 2004)
will take place from Oct. 3 - 7,
2004 in Seattle, Washington, USA.
The Meeting will address the technical interests related to industrial
applications of electrical energy.
Papers are solicited on any subject pertaining to the Scope of the
Technical Committees of the IEEE Industry Applications Society. Papers that include industry
participation are strongly encouraged.
Each Technical Session will be tied to a Committee's interest area. Papers will be selected by the
Committees sponsoring Technical Sessions at the Annual Meeting according to
their scopes. Further information
about the conference and the technical program may be obtained from the
conference web site located at http://www.ieee.org/ias2004.
Abstracts and digests (or full papers for
submissions to the Industrial and Commercial Power Systems Department) shall be
sent directly to the designated Technical Committee or Department Program Chair
identified in this call for
papers. Please note
that certain Technical Committees may have somewhat different abstract and
digest requirements as delineated in their call for papers below. After review, each corresponding author will be notified
of acceptance by the Technical Committee and will receive instructions regarding
preparation and submission of the final manuscript to be reproduced in the
conference record. These
communications will be conducted via email and internet so that a working email
address and internet access is required for each corresponding author. Presented papers are eligible for review
and publication in the IEEE Industry Applications Society
Transactions. These
Transactions reviews are conducted by the individual technical committees.
Please do not submit the same abstract to more than one
Technical Committee or Department.
Duplication could result in rejection of the paper.
Please note that not all IAS Technical Committees have
sessions at the IAS Annual Meeting.
If a committee contact is not given in this call for papers, please refer
to the appropriate IAS Technical Committee Chair or IAS Technical Department
Chair for further information. The
IAS Technical Committee Chairs are listed in the IAS Organizational Manual and
Membership Directory. Additional
information can also be obtained via the Society website: http://www.ewh.ieee.org/soc/ias/.
Some technical committees
may also sponsor Products and Services sessions at the Annual Meeting. These sessions consist of oral
presentations only and there are no written papers. These sessions are oriented towards the
interests of industry and presentations may be of a somewhat more commercial
nature than is possible in the standard technical sessions. Persons interested in developing a
presentation for a Products and Services session should check with the
appropriate Technical Committee Program Chair about possible scheduling.
