The PHM Society is proud to announce the first public forum dedicated to bringing all interested parties together and to discussing the state-of-the-art, technical limitations, and future research directions in this field. The goal of the Battery Management Systems Workshop is to discuss the emerging art and science of battery and power management for electric and hybrid vehicles as well as other mobile applications. A secondary goal is to document and benchmark the state-of-the-art in battery SoC and SoH estimation. A third goal is to discuss methods and strategies for acquiring public-domain data sets and performance models for battery usage and aging that can be used to benchmark future efforts in SoC and SoH estimation.

The Workshop will be conducted as a one-day workshop on Monday, September 26, 2011, during the Annual Conference of the PHM Society 2011 (PHM’11). More details are available here.
