Paper Submission Guidelines

Prospective authors are asked to submit a digest explaining the problem that will be addressedby the paper, the major results, and how this is different from the closest existing literature. Paperspresented at PEMWA must be original material and have not been previously presented orpublished. The principal criteria in selecting digests will be the usefulness of the work in windpower applications. Reviewers also value evidence of completed experimental work. The digestmust be double spaced in 10-point or larger font (3~5 pages) including any abstract (optional), figures,and tables. Referencing within the digest should be done by number (i.e. [1]), but the list ofreferences is to be submitted separately from the digest. The digest should not include any authornames or affiliations. Please email (1) complete contact information for the corresponding author,(2) your digest and (3) associated references in separate pdf-format files in one email with“PEMWA 2012” in email subject lineto one of the contacts listed below.

Authors should obtain any necessary company and governmental clearance prior to submission of digests.  Digests will be sent to multiple reviewers; therefore "Confidential" and "Proprietary" information should be omitted.  If a digest is accepted, a final manuscript and author-registration payment must be received by the deadline or the paper cannot be published in the Proceedings and included in IEEE Xplore database or presented at the conference.  Manuscripts exceeding seven pages are subject to extra charges (approximately $100 for each page over seven).  PEMWA relies upon a peer review process to ensure the quality of the technical content.

3 to 5 page long digest submission deadline is Feb 22, 2012
