Integration of Sensors in Control and Automation Systems 2020
Description
The integration of sensors in control and automation systems has received a great deal of attention from a considerable number of researchers as well as from the industrial community in the last years. Emphasis is placed on the importance of creating improvements in control and automation systems in order to meet the challenges of developing and refining new applications. These systems must integrate a variety of sensory information and human knowledge for the sake of efficiently carrying out tasks with or without human intervention.
This Special Issue aims at exhibiting the latest research achievements, findings, and ideas in the integration of sensors in control and automation systems. Researchers are invited to contribute with their original research articles as well as review articles that summarize the most recent developments and ideas in the field of integration of sensors in control and automation systems.
Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:
- Sensor systems for control and automation: Sensors and sensor networks, intelligent sensors, sensor uncertainty for fault tolerant control, distributed multimodality sensor networks for control and automation
- Control: Adaptive control, robust control, active disturbance rejection control, complex systems, identification and estimation, nonlinear systems, intelligent systems, sensor networks, delay systems, precision motion control, control applications, etc.
