This year we have received a record number of >300 abstract submissions from 865 authors and co-authors. Almost 60% of these were sent in from our international colleagues in 26 different countries, which emphasize the international character of this conference. Significant participation came from China, India, Japan, United Kingdom, Korea, Germany, Russia, France, and Brazil. The most popular technical topics were Solid State Modulators, Components, and Switches and Dielectrics and Breakdown followed by Biological, Medical, and Environmental Applications; High Voltage Testing and Diagnostics; High Power Microwaves, Radiating Structures, and Electromagnetic Propagation; and Compact Pulsed Power Systems. Abstracts were also collected in several other areas including Power Electronics and Power Supplies; Analytical Methods, Modeling, and Simulation; Plasma Opening and Closing Switches; High Voltage Design and Analysis; High Current Systems and EM Launchers; Accelerators, Radar, and RF Applications; Power Conditioning and Pulse Shaping; etc. The technical program of the 2012 IEEE IPMHVC is being held at the conference hotel, the Hilton San Diego Bayfront. The Hilton Bayfront is the newest waterfront hotel on San Diego Bay and is located within minutes of several attractions including the San Diego harbor, San Diego Padre’s PETCO Park stadium, Coronado island, and the vibrant Gaslamp Quarter of the downtown area which boasts more than 16 square blocks and more than 150 restaurants, shops, and nightclubs. The social program opens with the welcome reception on Sunday evening in the Exhibitors area, followed by a “night out” dinner at the USS Midway Museum on Monday evening, and a reception and conference awards banquet on Tuesday evening (Hilton Bayfront). The conference is fully sponsored by the IEEE Dielectrics and Electrical Insulation Society and technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society and the IEEE Electron Devices Society. We gratefully acknowledge the sponsorship from government, university, and industry, and the support from exhibitors. We encourage you to visit the booths and talk to the exhibitors. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the entire Conference Organizing Committee for all their efforts and we extend our sincere thanks to all the members of the Technical Program Committee for their hard work in reviewing the abstract submissions and defining an outstanding technical program. Finally, we thank all of the presenters and attendees for contributing to the ongoing success of this conference and we look forward to seeing you in Denver Colorado in 2014. Richard M.
