UPoN4 Objective

Since its first edition held in 1996 in Szeged, the aim of the UPoN conference is to provide a forum for researchers working on noise and fluctuations, where they can present and discuss their scientific problems which do resist solutions. These unsolved problems needs a more thorough, more open-minded, and less biased refereeing process than the presentation of solved problems typical in the publications of the standard literature. The conference tradition dictates that to be accepted each proposal (invited, contributed oral and poster papers) has to be reviewed using double-blind refereeing process by appropriate members of the Scientific Committee. To favor cross-fertilization from different disciplines and knowledge transfer no parallel sessions are foreseen. The conference will focus on noise and fluctuations at the nanometric scale-length in electron-devices, bio-materials, and mesoscopic systems.
