Profibus UK has issued a Call for Papers for its annual conference to be held at Coombe Abbey, Warwickshire on June 27 and 28 2006 As a direct response to the requests of the 2005 delegates, an on-line survey was sponsored to identify the needs of delegates for the next conference

User conference demonstrated application growth
The Profibus and Profinet UK User Conference saw a record attendance of over 70 delegates with many users bringing new staff to benefit from the workshops and technology updates
Profibus training courses available
There are still a few places available on a first-come, first-served basis on the August training courses for Certified Profibus Installer + Engineer/Commissioning courses
The resounding outcome was the requirement for the conference to be focused on requirements of the user community.
Responding to this valuable feedback, the 2006 event has been renamed the Profibus User Conference and the format altered to reflect a much stronger emphasis on the needs of the user community.
For example, in a new section devoted to 'back to basics' there will be enabling sessions to assist companies making the transition from conventional to fieldbus systems as easy (and jargon free) as possible.
In addition, the Conference will cover latest developments in Profibus and Profinet technology for factory and process automation including safety, motion control, wireless implementations and integration with the Internet and MES.
The event will be supported by an exhibition of the latest products and technology demonstrations from the Profibus Competence Centre at MMU.
The Papers Committee are now looking for speakers who are willing to make short presentations - approx 30 to 40 minutes - based around single aspects of Profibus.
This may be on cabling, hazardous areas or any such area.
Interactive presentations featuring live demonstrations are particularly welcome.
The intention is to focus the sessions on just one aspect enabling the delegates to acquire an in-depth knowledge of that area.
They are also seeking proposals for papers covering the latest developments in Profibus and Profinet technology as well as case studies illustrating their use in real world applications.
Proposals for presentations comprising a working title and 50 to 150-word abstract and brief biography should be sent to the Papers Committee at UK Profibus to arrive no later than 15 January 2006.
