Over the last three decades, RC has been a topic of active research and development of new theoretical principles, numerical methods and effective control algorithms to design and implement complex engineering control systems that provide adequate performance and stability when implemented in real plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The objective of the IFAC Symposium ROCOND\u201925 is to provide a forum for professionals, theorists, researchers, engineers and students involved in the broad field of Control Engineering to integrate and exchange their knowledge, experience, results and ideas in diverse areas of RC design, and to explore latest theoretical developments as well as various control industry applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Symposium on Robust Control follows the tradition of its eight successful previous editions, in 1994 Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), 1997 Budapest (Hungary), 2000 Prague (Czechia), 2003 Milan (Italy), 2006 Toulouse (France), 2009 Haifa (Israel), 2012 Aalborg (Denmark), 2015 Bratislava (Slovakia), 2018 Florianopolis (Brazil), 2022 Kyoto (Japan).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Topics of interest<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>With emphasis being on current challenges and new directions in development of theoretical and computational tools for versatile practical applications implemented on advanced control systems (networked, embedded, distributed control systems), the interest of the event include the following topics, but are not limited to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Robust stability and performance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mu-analysis and synthesis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Structured and unstructured uncertainties<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Robust model predictive control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Robust adaptive control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Robust nonlinear control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Model and controller reduction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Identification for robust control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>H-infinity identification<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Iterative identification and control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>H-infinity and optimal estimation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quantitative feedback theory<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Frequency domain methods<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>LMI and convex optimization<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Computational methods<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Data driven control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fault detection in Uncertain Systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Robust control for distributed parameter systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Optimal control and dynamic optimization<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hybrid systems control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Networked Systems (coordinated control, cooperation, control under communication constraints, etc.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Control applications (e.g., aerospace, automotive, process control, mechatronics, communications, system biology, power systems, power electronics, electrical machines, etc.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:19px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-ast-global-color-8-color has-text-color\" style=\"font-size:18px\">Main IFAC sponsoring Technical Committee<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>2.5.
