overseas organizing committees have successfully organized five conferences

PEDS-03 Singapore). All the PEDS conferences were held in technical co-sponsorship 
with the IEEE Power Electronics Society and IEEE Industry Applications Society. 
The aim of the Conference is to provide a forum for delegates  from the industry 
and academia  to exchange ideas and present their research results.

networking with each other. 
        
This time, the conference included a set of half-day tutorials conducted by Prof B T Ooi,

The opening ceremony was followed by three days of technical paper presentations 
until the 1st December.  The poster session was conducted  in the afternoon of  
30th November. With over 500 abstracts received, the Technical Program
