IFAC NMPC 2018, August 19th-22nd Madison, Wisconsin

We are pleased to invite you to submit papers and proposals for 
invited sessions to the 6th International Conference on 
Nonlinear Model Predictive Control, which will take place in the
city of Wisconsin, Madison, US, August 19th-22nd, 2018.

Model predictive control (MPC) is one of the advanced
control techniques that has significantly affected control engineering practice
with thousands of controllers implemented in various fields, spanning from
process industry to automotive and robotics.

NMPC 2018 aims at bringing together researchers interested and working in
the field of MPC, from both academia and industry. This allows to reflect
and establish the current state-of-the-art and focus the future development
of the MPC field towards relevant directions. 

Major conference topics are (for a detailed list see the conference webpage):
·      Uncertainty and model predictive control
·      Stability of model predictive control
·      Economic model predictive control
·      Model predictive control in the cloud/IoT and model predictive control
·      Learning and model predictive control
·      Hierarchical and decentralized predictive control
·      Embedded and real-time feasible predictive control
·      Applications of model predictive control
