About the Event

According to Allied Market Research (AMR), the global market of sensors and main types of transducers is poised to grow with a compound annual growth rate of 11.3 % until 2022 when the market will reach US$ 241 billion. There are however some restraining factors to the market, which include threat of new entrants, threat posed due to substitutes, intense competition, lack of product differentiation and lack of responsiveness the during performance.

The 6th Annual International Conference on Sensors and Electronic Instrumentation Advances (SEIA' 2020) is a forum for presentation, discussion, and exchange of information and latest research and development results in both theoretical and experimental research in sensors, transducers and their related fields. It brings together researchers, developers, and practitioners from diverse fields including international scientists and engineers from academia, research institutes, and companies to present and discuss the latest results in the field of sensors and measurements.

The SEIA conference is focusing any significant breakthrough and innovation in Sensors, Electronics, Measuring Instrumentation and Transducers Engineering Advances and its applications with broadest concept. The main aim of SEIA conference is to find solutions, which let to withstand the mentioned restraining factors.

After successful events in 2015 (Dubai, UAE), 2016 (Barcelona, Spain), 2017 (Moscow, Russia), 2018 (Amsterdam, The Netherlands), 2019 (Tenerife (Canary Islands), Spain), the SEIA' 2020 will take place in Porto, Portugal, 23-25 September 2020 in conjunction with the 2nd IFSA Frequency and Time Conference (IFTC' 2020) under the same conference umbrella.

The conference is organized by the International Frequency Sensor Association (IFSA) - one of the major professional, non-profit association serving for the sensor industry and academy during 20 years. Next to all the technical subjects, a major function of this series of events lies in the opprtunities for meeting colleagues. This aspect of our IFSA event has always been giving high marks and we continue to pay much attention to it. Coffee breaks, welcome cocktail reception and excursions are the best opportunity for social contacts. We trust that you will find SEIA' 2020 conference professionally rewarding and stimulating as well as enjoyable.

Session organizers will get:


- Certificate of Appreciation
- Free Registration
- Special Publishing Theme within Conference Proceedings

Publication

One event - three publications !

1) All registered abstracts will be published in the conference proceedings (USB flash drive edition of published Proceedings with the ISBN).

2) Authors will be invited to submit full-page extended papers to special issue of Sensors & Transducers open access journal (ISSN 2306-8515, e-ISSN 1726-5479), which is published in both formats: print and electronic (pdf).

3) The limited number of full-page papers published in the journal will be selected by the Editorial Board to extend for open access book chapters for the Book Series on 'Advances in Sensors: Reviews', Vol. 8.


Indexing

The previous editions of SEIA conference proceedings has been evaluated and successfully indexed in Conference Proceedings Citation Index (CPCI), Web of Science by Clarivate Analytics (formerly known as Thomson Reuters). The SEIA' 2020 conference proceedings will be also submitted to the Conference Proceedings Citation Index.
