IFAC Workshop on Manufacturing Modelling, Management, and Control - Call for Papers
Nov 14-16, 2007. Budapest, Hungary
MEETING SCOPE
Manufacturing systems of our days work in a fast changing environment
full of uncertainties. Increasing complexity is another feature showing
up in production processes and systems, furthermore, in enterprise
structures, as well. One of the recent areas of research is related to
the globalization of production manifested in production networks.
By using appropriate modelling and digital enterprise (DE)
technologies, theoretically, all the important production-related
information is available and manageable in a controlled, user-dependent
way.
The main concepts of adaptive manufacturing, digital manufacturing,
knowledge-based manufacturing, networked manufacturing will be
addressed at the Workshop together with requirements for real-time
functioning and cooperativeness of the whole system.
The Workshop's objective is to provide an international forum to
discuss the state-of-the-art of manufacturing modelling, management and
control, to disseminate the recent advances and to share views on
perspectives of this highly exciting area.
MAIN TOPICS
Product design support systems
Modelling, simulation, control and monitoring of manufacturing processes and systems
Production planning, scheduling
Quality Management
Design and implementation methods for CIM
Architectures of intelligent manufacturing systems
Robotics in manufacturing
Complexity, flexibility, transformability, maintainability, reliability, safety and dependability in CIM
Integration and communication
Artificial intelligence and machine learning approaches
Multi-agent approach in the context of manufacturing systems
Complex adaptive systems, emergent synthesis in manufacturing
Sensor networks, ubiquitous computing, active identifiers, wireless communication in manufacturing
Virtual reality and manufacturing
Digital factories, extended enterprises, production networks

The 2008 MULTICONF - Call for Papers
The 2008 MULTICONF (website: www.PromoteResearch.org) will be held during July 7-10 2008 in Orlando, FL, USA. We invite draft paper
submissions and session proposals. It consists of the following events:
International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Pattern Recognition (AIPR-08)
International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Control Systems (ARCS-08)
International Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Genomics and Chemoinformatics (BCBGC-08)
International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems and Web Technologies (EISWT-08)
International Conference on High Performance Computing, Networking and Communication Systems (HPCNCS-08)
International Conference on Software Engineering Theory and Practice (SETP-08)
International Conference on Theoretical and Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (TMFCS-08)
The IMECS 2008 is organized by the International Association of
Engineers (IAENG), a non-profit international association for
the
engineers and the computer scientists. The conference has the focus on
the frontier topics in the theoretical and applied engineering and
computer science subjects. The IMECS conferences serve as good
platforms for our members and the entire engineering community to meet
with each other and to exchange ideas. Our IMECS committees have been
formed with over two hundred and sixty committees members who are
mainly research center heads, faculty deans, department heads,
professors, and research scientists from over 30 countries. The last
IMECS 2007 has attracted more than one thousand participants from over
50 countries.
All submitted papers will be under peer review and accepted papers will
be published in the conference proceeding (ISBN: 978-988-98671-8-8).
The abstracts will be indexed and available at major academic
databases. The accepted papers will also be considered for publication
in the special issues of the journal Engineering Letters, in IAENG
journals and in edited books. Revised and expanded version of the
selected papers may also be included as book chapters in the standalone
edited books under the framework of cooperation between IAENG and
Springer.
