An invitation from the General Chair, Bernardo Jaduszliwer

It is my great pleasure to announce this meeting, the 62nd consecutive Frequency Control Symposium, one of the leading international technical conferences for research, development, and applications of frequency control. The 2008 IEEE International Frequency Control Symposium (FCS) will offer attendees and exhibitors a unique opportunity to interrelate both technically and socially.

On 18 May, the day prior to the meeting, a number of educational and informative Tutorial Sessions will be offered. These sessions will cover topics of interest to attendees, and will be presented by internationally recognized experts in their field.

Meeting highlights will include a plenary talk on a FCS area of interest, presentation of awards, an exhibit area staffed by representatives of leading manufacturers of Frequency Control and Precision Timekeeping Equipment, an Exhibitor-sponsored reception, and of course, the technical and poster sessions themselves. The FCS Technical Program Committee Chairman and the Committee members are dedicated to providing a stimulating and educational technical program for all attendees.

The Hilton Hawaiian Village is located on the beach at Waikiki, 3 miles from downtown Honolulu and Chinatown. Other areas of interest easily accessible from the Hilton Hawaiian Village include Hanauma Bay Snorkeling Nature Preserve, the ala Moana Beach park, the Arizona and Battleship Missouri Memorials at Pearl Harbor, the Iolani Palace, and the Diamond Head Crater and Scenic Lookout. Honolulu is also the gateway to the Hawaiian islands, and attendees may plan to spend a few extra days before or after the Symposium in the area, exploring and enjoying the beauty of the Hawaiian archipielago.

I look forward to seeing all of you at this meeting in our beautiful host city.
