3. PAC and IPAC - Update Once we get through the ’11 time transition, North America (NA) will be hosting an xPAC conference every 18 months: continuing the co-sponsoring by APS-DPF and IEEE-NPSS. IPACs in the Spring (’12, ’15, ’18, etc.) and PACs (’13, ’16, ’19, etc.) in the Fall. There will be an IPAC conference every year in the Spring, rotating in the order: Asia, Europe, NA (’12), Asia, Europe, NA (’15), etc. We (APS or IEEE) don’t sponsor or technical co-sponsor (yet) IPACs held outside NA. We work well with colleagues -- European colleagues agreed to shift IPAC’11 to the fall so that there would be little conflict with our planned PAC’11 in New York.
