Edmonton, November 19-21, 2008
Sponsored By: IEEE IAS, Southern

Alberta and Northern Canada Sections
PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
The IEEE Industry Applications Society Electrical Safety Technical & Mega Projects Workshop is to be held November 19 to
November 21, 2008 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The IEEE IAS ESTMP Workshop provides a forum for exchanging and advancing
industry knowledge in the areas of safety, engineering design, system reliability and the implementation of large projects. The Workshop
focus will be to share innovative concepts, successes as well as lessons learned in the areas of: 1) advancing the application of state of
the art knowledge and practices, 2) stimulating innovation in creating the next generation of technology and 3) design and
implementation of Mega Projects. For 2008, the Safety, Technical & Mega Project Workshop participants have a unique opportunity to
get additional value from their Workshop experience. This year, in addition to the very beneficial presentations, 3 Panel Discussions and
2 Tutorials have been included in the program (see back page).
VENUE AND ACCOMMODATIONS

The workshop is being held at the Mayfield Inn and Suites, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Edmonton is one of Canada's most important
business centers for engineering and Alberta is home to many of the country's mega-projects. The Edmonton International Airport
accommodates convenient air transportation to domestic and international locations. The hotel is moments away from shopping,
entertainment and fine dining. There is free parking at the hotel. To receive the preferred rate for the Hotel, the workshop
Registration must be completed before booking your room. See the accommodations section for additional information.
A block of rooms at the Mayfield Inn and Suites, which is the prime conference hotel, have been set aside for this Workshop. The
reservation number for the Mayfield Inn and Suites is 1-780-484-0821. Workshop attendees need to make their reservations directly with
the hotel. A limited number of rooms have been reserved, so book early. When making your reservations, please indicate you are
attending the IEEE Electrical Safety, Technical and Mega-Projects Workshop in order to obtain the conference rate (you will need to
provide your Workshop Registration No.).
EXHIBITORS
We encourage all exhibitors to attend the technical sessions of the Workshop in order to experience the latest technologies, listen to and
better understand the problems encountered in the field, and hear the concerns of participants. This information is of great value in
determining customer needs and wants, which can help in product design and marketing strategies. The face-to-face networking time
available in between the workshop sessions offers each exhibitor the opportunity to reacquaint themselves with existing customers, as
well as develop new contacts and to share how their products and services benefit the industry. At the end of the Workshop, all
participants are given a printed attendees list. All Exhibitors are expected to adhere to the Commercialism and Ethics Guidelines (see
website).
The Exhibition will be held on Wednesday and Thursday after the Mega-projects afternoon sessions, in the Mayfield’s exhibition hall,
which has a very accessible loading dock for larger displays. The Exhibits fee structure is posted at www.ieee.org/estmp and the
Registration Form.
