Call for Papers: 5th International Symposium on Resilient Control Systems

Wednesday, April 18th, 2012
The 5th International Symposium on Resilient Control Systems
Extends paper submission deadline to April 23, 2012.
Symposium is held in Salt Lake City August 14-16, 2012 at the Hilton Salt Lake City Center
See Website for details: https://secureweb.inl.gov/isrcs2012/

The major purpose of this symposium is to extend and endorse particular concepts that will generate novel research and codify resilience in next generation control system designs.

Energy security and sustainability are important concerns to individuals and industry alike, but even with the promise of a smart grid, increasing research will be necessary to ensure that what is achieved is more resilient in nature. As mobile and industrial robotics form an ever increasing role in both national defense and plant automation, the dependence on these systems elevates a need to ensure continued operability in spite of hazardous environments. Through appropriate sessions and presentations, the symposium will highlight resilience in light of the power system and robotics, bringing to light resilience perspectives important to these applications.

- Paper Submission Due: April 2, 2012 April 23, 2012 Extended
- Notification of Paper Acceptance: June 4, 2012
- Final Paper Submission: July 9, 2012
- Author Registration: July 9, 2012
