NMPC05

Call for Papers

The workshop covers 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 addition to the invited keynote and main speakers, there is room for a limited number of contributed talks and posters. The number of participants is limited to allow plenty of time for discussion and debate, both formal and informal.

If you want to present a talk or poster, you need to submit an one page abstract. Due to numerous requests the extended deadline for submission is April 8, 2005. For preparation and submission of the abstract please follow the detailed instructions provided here.

The abstracts for contributed talks and posters will be sent out for external review and the authors will be notified of the acceptance by May 14, 2005.

Dissemination/Proceedings

The workshop will be accompanied by a preprint volume and a CD-ROM containing all contributed paper. Thus we expect from all contributors (including talk and poster contributors) to submit a paper for the preprints. To allow production of the preprint volume we ask all contributors to submit their paper by August 7, 2005 following the instructions provided here.

After the conference all contributors are invited to contribute a chapter for a book volume in the Springer Lecture Notes in Control and Information Sciences series. The deadline for submission of the contributed papers for the book volume is October 2, 2005. All papers will be sent out for peer-review. We expect the book volume to be published mid 2006. All necessary informations about the book volume will be provided to the contributors at the workshop.
