Block Travel Funds: 1990 IFAC Congress, Tallinn, USSR, August 13-17, 1990

国际自动化联合会 国际会计师联合会（IFAC）由44个国家组成。 各成员组织（NMO） 代表有关技术协会 在自己的国家进行自动控制。 美国NMO是美国自动控制 理事会（AACC），由代表组成 来自七个成员协会， IEEE控制系统协会（IEEE Control Systems Society） 国际会计师联合会主办了许多会议，但最多的是 重要的是三年一次的世界大会。 国际会计师联合会第11届世界大会将于 1990年8月13日至17日，苏联塔林。 第12 将于1993年在澳大利亚悉尼举行， 1996年在美国旧金山弗朗西斯科举行了第13届世界园艺博览会。 第11届IFAC World 国会是“自动控制在服务 人类。“大会的一个目标是 来加强理论与 和应用程序，包括论文， 课题范围从基础研究到工业 和社会应用。 第二个目的 是加强 来自世界各地的研究人员， 包括美国过去， 会议非常成功， 吸引研究人员和其他工程师， 来自世界各地的科学家。 最 最近，国际会计师联合会第十届世界大会在 1987年，联邦德国慕尼黑的出席人数为 超过1500人 因此，会议预计 成为一个特别好的论坛， 美国和非美国之间的思想交流。 自动控制专家 会议将邀请 届会和常会。 它将 解决控制理论的主题，以及 应用于工业控制， 制造系统、自动化和其他 相关问题。

The International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC) is composed of 44 National Member Organizations (NMO), each one representing the technical societies concerned with automatic control in its own country. The U.S. NMO is the American Automatic Control Council (AACC) consisting of representatives from seven member societies of which the largest is the IEEE Control Systems Society. IFAC sponsors many conferences, but the most important is the triennial World Congress. The 11th such IFAC World Congress will be held August 13-17, 1990 in Tallinn, USSR. The 12th will be held in Sydney, Australia, in 1993, and the 13th in San Francisco, U.S.A. in 1996. The official theme of the 11th IFAC World Congress is "Automatic control in the service of mankind." One objective of the Congress is to strengthen the connections between theory and applications by including papers whose topics range from basic research to industrial and social applications. A second objective is to strengthen the cooperation between researchers from various parts of the world, including the U.S. In the past, this conference has been very successful in attracting researchers and other engineers and scientists from all over the world. The most recent IFAC World Congress, the 10th held in Munich, FRG, in 1987, had an attendance of over 1,500. Thus, the conference is expected to be a particularly good forum for the exchange of ideas among U.S. and non-U.S. experts in automatic control. The conference will be comprised of invited sessions and regular sessions. It will address control theory topics as well as applications to industrial controls, manufacturing systems, automation, and other related issues.
