다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper introduces the Interactive Power Electronics Seminar - iPES - a new software package for teaching of fundamentals of power electronic circuits and systems iPES is constituted by HTML text with Java applets for interactive animation, circuit design and simulation and visualization of electromagnetic fields and thermal issues in power electronics. It does comprise an easy-to-use self-explaining graphical user interface The software does need Just a standard web-browser, i.e no installations are required iFES can be accessed Via the World Wide Web or from a CD-ROM in a stand-alone PC by students and professionals Due to the underlying software technology IPES IS very flexible and could be used for on-line learning and could easily be integrated into an e-learning platform<br/>
