Welcome

The 12th International Workshop on Personal Computers and Particle Accelerator Controls (PCaPAC) will be hosted by NSRRC, in Hsinchu, Taiwan, from October 16th to 19th, 2018. The mission of PCaPAC 2018 is keeping both the traditional aspects of PCaPAC as well as the focus on emerging technologies. This is reflected in PCaPAC’s new official name “International Workshop on Emerging Technologies and Scientific Facilities Controls”. The venue is the Fleurlis Hotel, in the heart of the city. We look forward to welcoming you to Hsinchu, Taiwan.
