NANOPACK SESSION @THERMINC'09
A special NANOPACK session was held during the 15th International Workshop on Thermal Investigations of ICs and Systems, THERMINIC, in Leuven, Belgium, on 9th October 2009. Nine scientific papers related to NANOPACK subjects were presented and discussed by project partners and external speakers. This session was a very good opportunity to discuss and compare the different approaches, and will serve to gain new ideas to achieve the goals of the NANOPACK projects.

NANOPACK at the THERMINIC Workshop!
NANOPACK will be first presented in detail to the thermal management community at the at the 14th International Workshop on Thermal Investigations of ICs and Systems, THERMINIC , that will be held in Rome Italy, 24-26 September 2008.

The workshop will feature a special NANOPACK half day.  Within this half day 2 sessions are planned. The first one will give a short overview of the project itself to the international thermal management community. This session starts with a general presentation of the project, and will be continued by presenting the scientific results achieved so far within the project. The second session will include talks that are in close relation with the subject of the NANOPACK project, but not from NANOPACK authors. This session will give a very good opportunity to discuss and compare the different approaches, and will serve to gain new ideas to fine tune the ways to pursue in order to achieve the goals of the NANOPACK projects.
