It is our great pleasure to invite you to participate in the 5th joint IFAC/IEEE-CSS Workshop on Control of Systems Governed by Partial Differential Equations (CPDE2025) to take place in Beijing, China from June 18-20, 2025. The IFAC CPDE has been held in France (2013), Italy (2016), Mexico (2019) and Germany (2022). The deadline for submitting a contributing papers, or an extended abstract is December 20, 2024.
The workshop will address new and state-of-the-art developments in modeling and control of distributed parameter systems and their application. This covers approaches and techniques for the modeling, analysis, control, and observer/estimator design for systems governed by partial differential equations and includes (but is not limited to) methods such as differential geometric and algebraic approaches, semigroup and operator theory, Lyapunov-based and backstepping techniques, passivity and dissipativity, optimal control, controllability and observability analysis, stability theory, model reduction for control, computational methods, real-time control, actuator and sensor placement, experimental design. In addition, applications are considered covering, e.g., smart and adaptive structures in mechatronics, marine systems and aerospace engineering, flow control, energy generation, distribution and storage, process intensification and process systems engineering, adaptive optics, quantum systems, distributed cooperative systems, communication, embedded actuators and sensors, traffic control and network congestion, and flexible micro-structures.
Important dates
- Initial Paper Submission Due: December 20, 2024
- Decision Notification: March 15, 2025
- Final Submission Due: April 15, 2025
In addition to the workshop, an introductory summer school entitled “An introduction to modelling and control of systems governed by PDEs” is organized before the workshop from Sunday to Tuesday June 15-17 2025.
