CDC 2010 - 2010 49th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (CDC 2010)

The 49th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control will be held Wednesday through Friday, December 15-17, 2009 at the Hilton Atlanta Hotel in Atlanta, Georgia USA.

The CDC annually brings together an international community of researchers and practitioners in the field of automatic control to discuss the latest advancements of the discipline, shape its future directions, and promote its diffusion among the scientific community at large.
The 49th CDC will feature the presentation of contributed and invited papers, as well as tutorial sessions and workshops. In addition to the standard oral presentations, the conference will also feature interactive presentations and demonstrations, in order to encourage an interaction exchange with the audience. Topics for the interactive sessions will be selected specifically to benefit from the time for interaction and discussion that are not available in a typical lecture session, and the authors will be encouraged to make creative use of poster boards as well as hands-on computer simulations and demonstrations.

The CDC is hosted by the IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS), and 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).

Atlanta is one of the top five conference and convention cities in the US and is home to world-class restaurants, shopping, museums, cultural events and night life. The Hilton Atlanta is conveniently located within walking distance of many attractions, such as Centennial Olympic Park, the World of Coca-Cola, the CNN center, the Georgia Dome, Underground Atlanta, an historic shopping and entertainment center, and the Georgia Aquarium, which is the world’s largest aquarium. Atlanta International airport is only 11 km from downtown and is a major gateway for international flights; easily reached from most major cities in the world.
