The SusTech 2015 organizing committee announces the release of the 2015 Call for Papers. See notice below.
If you have interest in participating on the program committee or in helping with the conference development please let us know.
The 3rd IEEE Conference on Technologies for Sustainability (SusTech), being held July 30-August 1, 2015 in Ogden, Utah, has issued its First Call for Papers.
New this year will be an undergraduate student poster contest with best poster cash prizes judged by co-sponsors such as ASME Utah and others. Also, there will also be a free public outreach event in the form of a panel discussion at the Salt Lake City Library on July 29th at 6 PM.
Contributed papers and invited papers are being solicited in the following seven areas:
- Agriculture(e.g., control and production of fertilizers, soil, water conservation, irrigation, fisheries )
- Alternative Energy (e.g. solar, wind, tidal, fuel cells, energy harvesting, nuclear)
- Energy Efficiency (e.g. sensors and measurement, energy saving controls, auto electronics & fuel economy, data centers, power saving, Smart Environment)
- Transportation Electrification (e.g. electric vehicles, aviation, motors, drive controls, batteries, sensors, environmental & power distribution impacts)
- Smart Grid (e.g. communications, control, power electronics, industrial and home applications, energy storage, demand control and response)
- Sustainable Electronics (e.g. sustainable manufacturing, components, global materials supply, hardware life-cycle, nanotechnology & health/environment, reuse and repair of consumer electronics, materials harvesting from electronic waste, Open repair manuals and on-line repair and electronics sustainability resources, best practices)
- Societal Implications / Quality of Life (e.g. EM spectrum allocation, global warming, autonomous vehicles, health & medical electronics, global education & human resources, risk management, remediation, purification, public policy)
Tutorials, Workshops and Papers are solicited for both oral and poster presentation from industry, government and academia (including students) covering relevant research, technologies, methodologies, tools and case studies. Posters sessions this year will be limited to undergraduate students.
In addition, we are seeking proposals for tutorials and workshops on Certifications & Standards (e.g. verification, standards, regulations, compliance).
SusTech will feature contributed papers and distinguished invited speakers in each track. Full papers will be published in the Conference Proceedings. Conference content that meet IEEE quality review standards will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore as well as other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases. Topics with policy implications are welcome, in both technologies for sustainability and sustainable technologies.
Undergraduate poster submissions require an abstract in IEEE format. The undergraduate poster abstracts in IEEE format should be submitted directly to donahoe@ieee.org as PDFs. Poster abstracts need not be submitted through EDAS. A full paper is not required for the conference, only the poster.
Full details including information for authors are found on the conference website at
