PHM 2010 - IEEE - Prognostics & System Health Management Conference 2010 (PHM-2010 Macau)

Prognostics is the process of predicting the future "effective reliability" of a product by assessing the extent of deviation or degradation of a product from its expected normal operating conditions. Health monitoring is the process of measuring and recording the extent of deviation and degradation from a normal operating condition. All the leading companies in the world are looking at the implementation of PHM in their products and systems today.

The PHM-2010 Macau conference is the first of its kind in Asia to promote the realization and application of PHM as a key enabler for growth for a broad range of industries in the Asia Pacific region. The conference will bring together experts and leaders from industry, government organizations, and leading research centers who will share their methods and solutions for the application of PHM. This event will be an important platform for exchange and networking among leading players in the emerging PHM field, especially in the Asia Pacific region.
