In the next decades, power electronic system development will be driven by energy saving systems, intelligent energy management, power quality, system miniaturization and higher reliability. Monolithic and hybrid system integration will include advanced device concepts (including wide bandgap devices), dedicated ideas for system integration, new ideas on packaging technologies and the overall integration of actuators/drives (mechatronic integration). CIPS is focussed on the following main aspects: Packaging Technologies Hybrid System and High Power Density Integration Systems and Components Reliability Mechatronic Integration Basic technologies for integrated power electronics systems as well as upcoming new important applications will be presented in interdisciplinary invited papers. The story of CIPS began in 1999 with a Workshop in Frankfurt/Germany regarding System Integration of Power Electronics. The first CIPS conference took place in 2000 in Bremen / Germany. Today CIPS is an international conference, well known as a technical and scientific forum for engineers coming from industry and academia.
