IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - Due to unexpected circumstances, the deadline for submitting extended abstract has been extended to Monday, October 22, 2012 (midnight USA EST). Consequently, the acceptance notification will be communicated to the authors by December 20, 2012. We hope this extension will help those who need the additional time.

The Conference focuses on all aspects of instrumentation and measurement science and technology–research, development and applications. The program topics include:

  • Advances in Instrumentation and Measurement Developments and Techniques
  • Biomedical Systems
  • Data Acquisition Systems and Techniques
  • Energy and Power Systems
  • Industrial Process Control
  • Measurement and Instrumentation for Industrial Applications
  • Measurement Applications
  • Measurement of Electric and Magnetic Quantities
  • Measurement of Materials and Mechanical Quantities
  • Measurement, Instrumentation and Methodologies Related to Healthcare Systems
  • Measurement Systems and Theory
  • Medical Instrumentation
  • Non-invasive Measurement Techniques and Instrumentation
  • Real-Time Measurement
  • Robotics and Controls
  • Sensors and Sensor Fusion
  • Signal & Image Processing Techniques
  • Software Development for Measurement and Instrumentation Support
  • Techniques related to Instrumentation
  • Transducers
  • Virtual Measurement Systems
  • Wireless Sensors and Systems


Special Sessions will provide comprehensive discussion of today’s hot topics in instrumentation and measurement:
 

  • RFID Research in the Areas of Instrumentation and Measurement
  • Emerging Methods for Measuring, Modeling, and Instrumentation in Medical Applications
  • Microwave, Millimeter Wave, and Terahertz: Devices, Methods, Applications, and Measurements
  • Wireless Sensor Networks for Assisted Living
  • Technology Transfer Session & Panel Discussion
  • Wireless Instrument Techniques for Medical Applications
  • RF/Microwave Materials Characterization
  • Porous Media Measurements
  • Instrumentation and Measurement for Improving Quality, Reliability and Safety


Given that the 2013 conferences theme is “Instrumentation and Measurement for Life” we strongly encourage submissions in the areas of medical, biomedical and healthcare instrumentation, measurement, system development and recent advances.

Potential authors are invited to submit extended abstracts via the I²MTC
website (http://imtc.ieee-ims.org/).

Each extended abstract (3 or 4 pages in English) should report results of the original research of theoretical or applied nature. The extended abstract should, moreover, explain the significance of the contribution and contain a list of key references. It must be prepared according to the abstract preparation guidelines provided on the I²MTC website. A Student Poster Contest will be held for both graduate and undergraduate student papers, with cash awards for the best papers and travel subsidies ranging from USD 300 to USD 1000 depending on student location. Extended abstracts should be submitted by the students according to the rules posted on the website and should be identified as student papers. Check that website for detailed instructions and deadlines at http://imtc.ieee-ims.org/.
