ACES Symposium 2012
About ACES Conference
The Applied Computational Electromagnetics Society (ACES) Symposium provides an open setting for technical presentations, software demonstrations, vendor booths, short courses, and hands-on workshops for users of computational techniques applied to electromagnetic (EM) field problems at all frequency ranges.
The 2012 symposium will take place 10-14 April in Columbus, Ohio. For more details on the Symposium, visit the ACES Conference website.
We invite and encourage you to submit a paper that shares your ideas, techniques, and tips employing the Sonnet Suites High Frequency 3D planar electromagnetic (EM) simulator. For more detials on paper submission, please see the call for papers document.
