On 29 May, First international scientific and technical conference IEEE “Electrotechnics and computer engineering” (“UKRCON 2017”) started its work in National technical university of Ukraine “Igor Sikorsky Kyiv polytechnic institute”.
The conference was organized on the occasion of 25th anniversary of creation of Ukrainian section of International organization, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Industry Application Society).
ІЕЕЕ – is the biggest and the most respectable in the world professional community of scientists and engineers that unites almost 500 thousand members from more than 160 countries and has 334 sections in 10 geographical regions of the world. It serves as sponsor and organizer of scientific conferences in 95 countries and is the founder of almost 200 scientific and technical editions of different languages.
First Ukrainian center of IEEE that includes almost 400 members was created on 21 November, 1991 in Kyiv polytechnics. That why it was decided to hold their international conference “UKRCON 2017”. At this conference, scientists, practical engineers, students and business representatives will be able to share ideas and discuss the most relevant theoretical and practical problems of electric and electronic technology, nanotechnologies, bioengineers, information and communication technologies etc. Honorable heads of the conference were member of Board of directors of IEEE Kostas Stasopulos, deputy of Minister of education and science of Ukraine Maksym Strikha, rector of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv polytechnic institute, academician of Ukrainian NAS Mykhailo Zgurovskyi.
First in Ukraine international scientific and technical conference IEEE ““Electrotechnics and computer engineering” (“UKRCON 2017”) will work in the format of plenary meetings and in terms of six sections: «Microwave Techniques, Antennas & Radar Systems», «Bioengineering & Robotics», «Energy Systems, Industry Application & Industry 4.0», «Nanoelectronics & Photonics, Electron Devices & Embedded Systems», «Systems Analysis, Computer Science & Infocommunications» and «Engineering Education & History» (English is the working language of the conference). Papers will be read in terms of subsections, that’s why the topicality of the conference will cover the most of lines of modern electronics development. Almost 400 articles and papers from many countries of the world were brought for consideration of organizing committee. Over 240 researchers from 29 countries take part in the conference. Among them not only those researchers recognized by the world but also post-graduates and students who make first steps in science. The conference papers will be issued in a collection of papers that according to the conference arrangements will be included into data base of IEEE XPLORE DIGITAL LIBRARY that in its turn is indexed in international scientific and metric data base SCOPUS
Rector of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv polytechnic institute, academician of National Academy of Science of Ukraine Mykhailo Zgurovsky opened the conference.
The deputy of Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine, Maksym Strikha, Vice-President of IEEE in 2015, professor Vinchenzo Puri (Milan university, Italy), cofounder and former president (1998 – 2009) of European Microwave Association, professor Roberto Sorrentino (University of Perugia, Italy), president of Ukrainian department of IEEE Felix Yanovskyi and others took part in the opening ceremony.
