ICINCO 2013

The purpose of the 10th International Conference on Informatics in Control, Automation and Robotics (ICINCO) is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in the application of informatics to Control, Automation and Robotics. Four simultaneous tracks will be held, covering Intelligent Control Systems, Optimization, Robotics, Automation, Signal Processing, Sensors, Systems Modelling and Control, and Industrial Engineering, Production and Management. Informatics applications are pervasive in many areas of Control, Automation and Robotics; This conference intends to emphasize this connection. CONFERENCE AREAS: Each of these topic areas is expanded below but the sub-topics list is not exhaustive. Papers may address one or more of the listed sub-topics, although authors should not feel limited by them. Unlisted but related sub-topics are also acceptable, provided they fit in one of the following main topic areas: 1. INTELLIGENT CONTROL SYSTEMS AND OPTIMIZATION 2. ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION 3. SIGNAL PROCESSING, SENSORS, SYSTEMS MODELLING AND CONTROL 4. INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING, PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
