ICCEM 2015 is the first IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society Topical Meeting on Computational Electromagnetics. It is financially sponsored by the Antennas and Propagation Society with the State Key Laboratory of Millimeter Waves, Partner Laboratory in the City University of Hong Kong, its patron. It brings together researchers and practitioners for sharing their latest advances in numerical algorithms, modeling methods, optimization and animation tools, and computing platforms for applications across the whole electromagnetic spectrum. In additional to contributing papers, a special session with particular focus will be organized under the able leadership of the Technical Program Committee Chairs.

The conference will be held on City University of Hong Kong campus. City University of Hong Kong is a young university and it is celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2014. The university is uniquely placed in the population center of Hong Kong in Kowloon Tong. Three new buildings have been erected in the past few years, including the Run Run Shaw Creative Media Centre designed by the world renowned architect Daniel Libeskind and the Academic 3, the site of the conference. Through an underground walkway, the campus is connected to Festival Walk, a shopping mall of over 200 retail stores, including some of the world’s renowned retail names and reputable companies. Festival Walk has many restaurants offering a wide selection of cuisines ranging from Cantonese to Vietnamese to Italian and it also has one of the largest ice rinks in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong, a metropolis of 7 million people, is one of the most popular tourist destinations. It offers cultural diversity, natural beauty and incredible skylines. February is a very pleasant time to visit Hong Kong and the conference banquet will be on a dinner cruise, sightseeing in Victoria Harbor.
