Invitation to TECIS 2018:
It is our pleasure to invite you to participate in the TECIS 2018, which aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from industry and academia to give an overview of the state of the art, to present new research results and to exchange ideas and experiences in the fields of technology and international stability.
Meeting Scope and Objectives:
Technology development leads to dramatic changes in international stability. It has never been so important to examine system stability. Currently and during the recent years social international and national systems of control have been shown to be inadequate and prone to be fundamental and most basic instable. Many basic assumptions are no longer certain and are definitely questioned. This event will systematically examine these topics. Another goal of the TECIS conference is to propose new approaches in dealing with globalization effects, while studying complexity and knowledge management.
Topics:
The scope of the conference will encompass but not limited to:
• Control and Automation in Improving Stability
• Young Engineers in Control
• Automation and Control in Oil and Gas Industry
• Social Aspects of Oil and Gas Engineering
• Developments in Petrochemical Industry
• Development of Regional Countries
• Social Networks
• Managing the Introduction of Technological Change to Improve Stability
• Technology in Post-Conflict Regions
• Innovation Management
• Open Innovation and Applications
• Enterprise Integration, Networking, and Software
• Cost Oriented Automation (COA)
• SME-oriented Automation
• Decision Support Systems for SME's
• Semi-Automated Assembly and Disassembly (EoL)
• Intelligent Systems and Applications
• Mechatronic Systems and Robotics
• Robotics and Handling Devices
• Artificial Intelligence and Applications
• Retrofitting of Automation Devices
• Engineering Ethics
• Tele-medical Systems
• Cross-cultural Aspects of Engineering
• Control & Political Stability
• Models & Simulation
• Sustainable Design and Control
• Human Aspects of Safety and Risk Engineering
• Biomedical Systems
Paper submission:
“All publication materials submitted for presentation at an IFAC-sponsored meeting (Congress, Symposium, Conference, Workshop) must be original and hence cannot be already published, nor can it be under review elsewhere. The authors take responsibility for the material that has been submitted. IFAC-sponsored conferences will abide by the highest standard of ethical behaviour in the review process as explained on the Elsevier webpage (http://www.elsevier.com/journal-authors/author-rig... ), and the authors will abide by the IFAC publication ethics guidelines (http://www.ifac-control.org/events/organizersguide... ).
Accepted papers that have been presented at an IFAC meeting will be published in the proceedings of the event using the open-access IFAC-PapersOnLine series hosted on ScienceDirect (http://www.sciencedirect.com). To this end, the author(s) must confer the copyright to IFAC when they submit the final version of the paper through the paper submission process. The author(s) retain the right to use a copy of the paper for personal use, internal institutional use at the author(s)’ institution, or scholarly posting at an open web site operated by the author(s) or their institution, limited to noncommercial use. Any other use of the paper requires approval by IFAC.”
