Invitation to the combined 48th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control and 28th Chinese Control Conference
The combined 48th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control and 28th Chinese Control Conference will be held during the third week of December, 2009 at a location in China. This will be the third time that CDC has been held outside the United States in the Asia-Pacific region, and it is very fitting that it is being held in China, where numbers of new IEEE members are increasing so rapidly. China today is one of the most dynamic and exciting countries in the world. With a thriving economy, huge recent investment in education and research, together with an extraordinarily rich history of culture, it is the ideal location for CDC.
The annual IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (CDC) is internationally recognized as the premier scientific and engineering conference dedicated to the advancement of the theory and practice of systems and control. The CDC brings together an international community of researchers and practitioners to discuss new research results, perspectives on future developments, and innovative applications relevant to decision making, automatic control, and related areas.
The combined CDC and CCC is hosted by the IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS) in collaboration with the Technical Committee on Control Theory(TCCT) of the Chinese Automation Association. It is organized in cooperation with the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM), the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS), the Japanese Society for Instrument and Control Engineers (SICE), and the European Union Control Association (EUCA).
On behalf of our conference sponsors and the rest of the conference organizing committee, the general chairs Lei Guo and John Baillieul hope that you will plan to join us in China.
