More about the event:

 

The IEEE International Symposium on Electronics and the Environment in

2009 transitions to become the IEEE International Symposium on
Sustainable Systems and Technology. The focus broadens to encompass
technology in general beyond the electronics sector.

 

The event will be co-located with the IEEE International Symposium on
Technology and Society (ISTAS) and held May 18-20, 2009 in Phoenix
(Tempe), Arizona.  

 

The 2009 program will feature the latest in environmental design,
manufacturing, new technologies, end of life management, information and
communication services, emerging technologies. education, and policy
from world leaders in industry, academia, consulting, and public policy
areas. This year's focus area will be Design for Sustainability,
including coverage of emerging technologies and their impact on energy,
materials, and systems across the life cycle. Of particular interest are
non-traditional technologies being considered in emerging products (such
as fuel cells and nanomaterials) and future trends in end-of-life
management for both new processes and new products. Quality papers from
the conference proceedings will be recommended for publication in a
special issue of the IEEE Transaction on Electronics Packaging and
Manufacturing as well as The Journal of Industrial Ecology.

 

This year's event will also build on last year's highly successful
poster session.  The poster session is open to all symposium
participants as an opportunity to share scholarly work as a visual
display, even in its early stages, and to interact with colleagues and
gather feedback. 

 

An element of the poster session will be a student poster competition
honoring outstanding posters created and presented by students. In
addition, a student paper competition will bestow prizes to top papers.

Cash prizes are awarded in both competitions after a review of entrants
by a panel of judges. All participants in each competition receive gifts
(first authors only).
