1st CALL FOR PAPERS
ISOFIC 2014/ISSNP 2014
International Symposium on Future I&C for Nuclear Power Plants
International Symposium on Symbiotic Nuclear Power Systems

August 24(Sun)~28(Thu) 2014
International Convention Center Jeju, Jeju, Republic of Korea

Following the successes of the first ISOFIC (International Symposium on Future I&C for Nuclear Power Plants) in 2002 in Seoul, Republic of Korea and the first ISSNP (International Symposium on Symbiotic Nuclear Power Systems) in 2007, Tsuruga, Japan, the joint international conference of ISOFIC 2014/ISSNP 2014 will be held during August 24~28 2014 at International Convention Center Jeju (ICCJEJU) in Jeju, Republic of Korea. The ISOFIC 2014/ISSNP 2014 is organized to promote academic exchanges of the topics of mainly instrumentation and control (I&C), human machine interface (HMI) technologies, and symbiosis of technology in nuclear industries. The categories of the conference including the general nuclear engineering are as follows :
- ISOFIC (I&C)
Sensors, modern control, diagnostics and surveillance, digital upgrades, software V&V, cyber security, safety and reliability of digital systems, risk and safety evaluation, etc.
- ISOFIC (HMI)
Human factors engineering, human performance, human reliability assessment, control room design, operator support systems, etc.
- ISSNP
Safety and risk studies from social, environmental and economic aspects, other general nuclear engineering (ex. Reactor physics, thermal-hydraulics, reactor core and plant behavior, nuclear fuel behavior, etc.) and integrated aspects of energy systems (ex. Multipurpose utilization of nuclear energy, nuclear fuel cycle, plant decommissioning, comparative study of nuclear energy with other energy technologies, etc.)

PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
You can submit an abstract for oral presentation (Max. 500 words). Online submission procedure will be available from early July 2013 at the official website www.isofic.org. For submission details, please consult submission page.
