The 2011 International Instrumentation and Measurement Technology Conference (I2MTC) was held successfully in Hangzhou, China on 9-12 May 2011. The conference was attended by a total of 289 registered participants, including 89 postgraduate students and 5 undergraduate students. The post-conference survey results indicate that 84.3% of the attendees were either very satisfied (46.1%) or satisfied (38.2%) with the I2MTC 2011 and that 13.3% of the attendees ticked the “fair” box. The technical program consisted of a series of thought-provoking scientific and technical sessions, covering all aspects of theory and practice of metrology, measurement technology, instrumentation, and related applications. The technical program included more than 350 papers from all over the world organized in 50 oral presentation sessions and 5 poster sessions. It was encouraging that 137 papers were from postgraduate or undergraduate students. Parallel technical sessions began after the keynote address on Tuesday, 10 May and continued through Thursday, 12 May. There were also 11 tutorial sessions held on Monday, 9 May. In addition, the oral presentation sessions included seven special sessions which were consistent with the conference theme of I2MTC 2011 - “Instrumentation and Measurement for Improving Quality of Life”. In particular, special sessions on Advanced Sensors and Instrumentation for Healthcare and on Advanced Measurement and Instrumentation for NDT&E and Structural Health Monitoring attracted overwhelming response from the community and were well attended at this conference. We were delighted to have Professor Jian Chu, the Vice President of Zhejiang University, as our keynote speaker. Professor Chu’s keynote presentation on recent advances on instrumentation, control systems and security problems was very informative and stimulating.
The organization of I2MTC 2011 was a very demanding and complex task. Many people devoted their time and energy to promote the event, solicit and review the submissions, shape the technical program, organize the exhibits, compile conference proceedings, arrange the logistics, and organize the social functions. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the contributors to the conference organization. Our special thanks go to the main sponsors: The IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Society and Zhejiang University.
