 XIV Iberian Meeting on Computational Electromagnetics (EIEC 2022)
24-27 May 2022, Núria (Girona), Spain

The XIV Iberian Meeting on Computational Electromagnetics will be held in Núria (Girona) from 24 to 27 May
2022. EIEC meetings allow the exchange of knowledge between members of Portuguese and Spanish research
groups working on computational electromagnetics applications in the various branches of Electrical Engineering
by providing a highly specialized environment. These contacts contribute to forge closer ties in a community
whose activity could be diluted in forums with a broader scope, favoring the establishment of partnerships that
eventually lead to the development of joint projects.

Traditionally, EIEC tries to promote dialogue and the sharing of ideas among participants outside the program
sessions. For this, all the editions have been held in small towns and picturesque villages, avoiding the dispersion
of the participants and encouraging them to group together in lunches, dinners and social life. For this reason, the
Hotel Vall de Núria on Queralbs (Girona) has been chosen as the venue of the XIV edition, organized by the
CommSensLab from Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC). The web site is: https://eiec2022.upc.edu/

The meeting favors the introduction of longer speeches, as opposed to a conference or symposium, allowing the
groups to present the research lines they are currently working on and the most relevant results and state of the
art in the various fields covering the scope of the meeting.

Welcome to EIEC 2022!
