AVFOP 2012 Announces Call For Papers


COCOA BEACH, FL -- The IEEE Photonics Society’s 2012 Avionics, Fiber-Optics & Photonics Conference (AVFOP 2012) announces a Call for Papers in avionics fiber optic systems, architectures, networking schemes and components. The conference is scheduled for 11 - 13 September 2012, at the Courtyard by Marriott in Cocoa Beach, Florida.
The Avionics, Fiber-Optics & Photonics Conference (AVFOP 2012) is an application-oriented conference dedicated to providing a common international forum for researchers, engineers, technicians, logisticians, manufacturers and academicians to discuss all aspects of severe-environment avionic fiber optic components, systems, reliability, maintainability manufacturability and supportability, as well as future directions. More than 70 technical papers will be presented along with a product exhibition.
The paper submission deadline is 30 April 2012. Authors will be notified by 14 May 2012 of the status of their paper. The complete Call for Papers can be found at http://www.avfop-ieee.org/call-for-papers.
