N2 - Our IEEE transactions on power electronics has had some very positive progress these past years under the leadership of Dr. Daan van Wyk. Papers have been processed efficiently both in review time and publication time. This success has spread throughout the whole power electronics community which has increased the submission of papers to the TRANSACTIONS every year. Fortunately, we have been able to increase the number of papers published, however, we still have a relatively large backlog. In 2007, we will increase the number of published papers to nearly 2,000 pages. Unfortunately, this popularity creates a transient problem for many authors. The impact factor of the TRANSACTIONS has dropped significantly. This parameter was not important years ago for the PELS Society, but now, universities all over the world try to benchmark and one of their factors are publications in high impact journals.
