COMPEL 2012 - Thirteenth IEEE Workshop on Control and Modeling for Power Electronics

COMPEL 2012 - June 10 - 13

The IEEE Power Electronics Society announces the Thirteenth IEEE Workshop on Control and Modeling for Power Electronics (COMPEL'12). This workshop will be held at Muromachi Campus, Doshisha University, Kyoto Japan. COMPEL'12 brings together industrial, government, and academic researchers for interactive discussion on the latest advances in modeling, analysis, and control of power electronic devices, circuits, and systems. Special emphasis at COMPEL'12 will be on modeling and simulation application techniques for power electronic systems as well as analysis, modeling, control, and power management. The workshop also includes hands-on software and hardware demonstrations presented by participants.

Workshop topics

The COMPEL'12 Technical Committee will consider all submissions relevant to the areas of interests of the workshop. Topics suitable for the workshop include (but are not limited to):
