The Special Presentation Sessions were introduced at APEC 2004. These presentations have been solicited from the leaders in the power electronics industry especially to address topics of current interest. Like the Professional Education Seminars, they were chosen for their specific topics and were not selected through the peer review process.
These special presentations do not have papers in the APEC Proceedings.
