Over the recent years significant progress in the field of nonlinear
model predictive control has be achieved. Considering these
achievements the objective of this international workshop is to bring
together a diverse group of internationally well recognized
researchers and industrial practitioners in the area of nonlinear
model predictive control (NMPC) and moving horizon state estimation
(MHE),
to critically assess and discuss the
current status as well as future
directions and needs. Our goal is that this
symposium will lead to an open and critical exchange of ideas and that
the foundation for new research directions and future international
collaborations is laid, thus
facilitating the practical and theoretical advancement of NMPC
technologies.
The workshop will cover four main topical areas:
- NMPC and MHE theory
- Computationational aspects of NMPC and
MHE
- NMPC and MHE applications and
application
aspects
- Future research directions.
In the spirit of the very successful predecessor workshop
held in 1998 in Ascona, Switzerland, the keynotes and main
talks are given by invited speakers. In addition to the invited
contributors there is room for a limited number of oral as well as
poster contributions.
Also we can accommodate a limited number of
non-contributing participants. The number of participants is limited
to allow plenty of
time for discussion and debate, both formal and informal.
| The
workshop will take place at the Waldhotel
Zollernblick
which is beautifully situated in the black forest region in
Freudenstadt-Lauterbad, Germany. Participants are expected to arrive on
Friday, August 26, 2005 in the afternoon. The workshop will end
on
Tuesday 30, 2005 after breakfast. The participants will stay at the
hotel
during the workshop and will have all meals there together. |

After the workshop all contributors are invited to contribute a
chapter for a book volume in the Springer
Lecture Notes in Control and Information Sciences series.
The contributions will be peer-reviewed and we expect the book
volume to be published mid 2006.
