Dear Colleagues,

It is our great pleasure to invite you to participate in the 7th International Conference on

Advanced Computational Engineering and Experimenting, ACE-X 2013, which will be held at NH

Ribera del Manzanares (Paseo Virgen del Puerto, 57), in Madrid, Spain, from 1-4 of July, 2013.

The ACEX conferences are aimed at attracting a balanced portion of delegates from academia,

industry and research institutions and laboratories involved with research and development work.

In doing so, the conference provides a binding platform for academics and industrialists to network

together, exchange ideas, provide new information and give new insights into overcoming the

current challenges which are faced by the academics and the industrialists related to the

computational engineering and related experimenting.

The event will provide ample opportunity for conference delegates to network and improve their

knowledge in an attractive, cultural and friendly environment: Madrid, Spain.

Looking forward to welcoming you in Madrid!

Professor Dr.-Ing. Andreas Öchsner, D.Sc. (Chair)
