ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

On behalf of the Organizing and Programme Committees, we invite you to the 2011 International Workshop on Robot Motion and Control. Invited papers will be presented by members of the Scientific Committee. We are doing our best to make the RoMoCo'11 an exceptional meeting both professionally and socially. We encourage you to attend this event and to join in spontaneous and vigorous discussions with your professional colleagues coming from many countries.

TOPICS

Papers are invited on all theoretical and application aspects of robot control. The scope of the workshop includes but is not limited to:

control, modelling and parameter identification of robots and manipulators;
robot control techniques: non-adaptive and adaptive, robust, hybrid, learning;
path and trajectory planning: nonredundant, redundant and hyperredundant manipulators, mobile robots, microrobot holonomic and nonholonomic systems;
collision avoidance;
applications: manufacturing, space, underwater, air, civil engineering and service, medicine, economic and social aspects of robotics;
neural networks in robot motion and control.
