活动简介

Following the success of the previous editions of the Workshop on Communication Networks and Power Systems (WCNPS), we are pleased to announce the 7th workshop. WCNPS 2022 will be held in hybrid mode (partially virtual and partially presential) on November 17-18, in Fortaleza. The event will be jointly organized by Federal University of Ceará (UFC) and Brasília University (UnB) and will count on several plenary talks held by experts and researchers of the industry, government, and academia. Moreover, the event also includes the presentation of contributed papers, that will undergo peer review in order to provide feedback to the authors and ensure a high-quality program. The official language of the workshop is English.
