**About the Editors**

**M ´arta Rencz** received her Electrical Engineering degree and PhD from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics. She was a PI in numerous international research projects, mostly in the field of investigating, measuring and modeling multi-physical effects in electronics. She has published her theoretical and practical results in more than 350 technical papers. She was a co-founder and CEO of MicRed Ltd, that is now part of Siemens DI, where she still holds a research director position. She holds various awards of excellence, among others the Harvey Rosten award (2001) and the Allan Krauss thermal management award of ASME (2015). In 2013, she received a Doctor Honoris Causa degree from the Tallinn University of Technology in Estonia. In 2019, she received the Thermal Hall of Fame, Lifetime achievement award at Semitherm in San Jose, CA, USA.

**Lorenzo Codecasa** received his PhD in Electronic Engineering from Politecnico di Milano in 2001. From 2002 to 2010, he worked as an Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering with the Department of Electronics, Information, and Bioengineering of Politecnico di Milano. His main research contributions are in the theoretical analysis and the computational investigation of electric circuits and electromagnetic fields. In his research on heat transfer and thermal management of electronic components, he has introduced original industrial strength approaches to the extraction of compact thermal models, currently also available in commercial software. For these activities, in 2016, he received the Harvey Rosten Award for Excellence. He currently serves as an Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions of Components, Packaging and Manufacturing Technology. In his research areas, he has authored or co-authored over 200 papers in refereed international journals and conference proceedings.

**Andras Poppe** obtained his MSc in electrical engineering and his PhD from the Technical University of Budapest (BME), Faculty of Electrical Engineering, where he now serves as a professor, and the head of the Department of Electron Devices of BME. His recent fields of research include electro-thermal simulation, thermal simulation and issues of thermal transient testing of IC-s, MEMS and electrical components, combined thermal and radiometric/photometric characterization of power LEDs and the characterization of OLEDs. He is an internationally recognized expert of multi-physics modelling and the characterization of electronics components. For his work on LED multiphysics modelling, he has already received the Harvey Rosten Award twice. He was one of the co-founders of MicReD LtD, now part of Siemens DI. He has published his research results in more than 300 scientific papers.
