SSI 2012 - The Smart Systems Integration Conference 2012 (SSI)

Smart systems provide novel enabling functionalities and as such are currently a driving force behind product innovation. For that reason they are crucial for the competitiveness of companies and entire industry sectors like aeronautics, automotive, security, logistics and other. Moreover smart systems development will support solving big challenges of mankind, such as socio-economic problems in health, environment, mobility and other domains.

Smart systems will be networked, energy autonomous, miniaturized, reliable and sometimes even implantable. They are becoming increasingly complex, consist of different components and they involve different technologies and materials.

With the Smart Systems Integration Conference 2012 (SSI) we will show a snapshot of the current smart applications and international research work related to smart technology, smart materials, smart energy, smart mobility and 3D integration. There will be special sessions related to best practice examples and the strategy of the European Platform on Smart Systems Integration (EPoSS). A second special session focuses on actual industrial and scientific developments in the USA. Additionally the European Executive Congress of the MEMS Industry Group will be held in collaboration with the SSI 2012 one day before the SSI.

On behalf of the committee, the co-chair ? Dr. Günter Lugert of Siemens AG and chairman of EPoSS Steering Committee ? and the local co-chairs from Switzerland ? André Perret (CSEM), Nico de Rooij (EPFL), Christopher Hierold (ETH) and Gian-Luca Bona (Empa) - I look forward to receiving your application oriented and / or scientific submission.
