Intelligent Processing and Manufacturing of Materials

The 7th International Conference on Intelligent Processing and Manufacturing of Materials will take place in Vancouver, Canada in April, 2010. IPMM conferences are held every two years. Previous events have been held in Gold Coast, Australia (1997), Honolulu, Hawaii (1999), Vancouver, Canada (2001), Sendai, Japan (2003), Monterey, California (2005) and Salerno, Italy (2007).

IPMM conferences are an occasion for researchers, scientists, engineers, and technologist from a wide variety of fields to come together to share in their "intelligent" work. We define the term, Intelligence, in its broadest sense whether the application be software or hardware. Papers run the gamut from highly technical subjects that involve both theory and practice to non-technical areas that include sustainability, psychology, sociology, philosophy, and law.
