Workshop for Research Needs in the Modeling, Dynamics, Control, and Monitoring of Complex Engineering Systemes

电信、材料纳米技术和生物学的最新进展对控制领域具有潜在的影响。本次研讨会的目的是根据这些进展来定义一般的方法研究需求：(1)它们将涉及对自然的更详细的描述，一直到细胞和分子水平；(2)下一组工程系统将具有更大的规模，其复杂性将远远大于过去。这笔拨款用于支持一个多学科研讨会，该研讨会将解决复杂工程系统建模、动力学、控制和监测领域的研究需求。它将于5月11日和12日在阿拉斯加安克雷奇举行，之后是美国控制会议。如果将会议安排在行政协调会之后，费用将大大降低，因为大多数与会者已经在现场，而且星期六的会议室将是免费的。研讨会的组织旨在避免沿传统工程学科的问题和挑战的隔离。将采取系统的努力来考虑所有工程领域的共同问题，分组会议将有涵盖所有工程学科的参与者。

Recent advances in telecommunications, materials nanotechnology and biology have potential implications in the area of control. The purpose of this workshop is to define the generic methodological research needs pursuant to these advances as: (1) they will involve a more detailed description of nature, down to the cellular and molecular level, and (2) the next set of engineering systems will be of a larger size and their complexity will be far greater than in the past. This grant is for support of a multidisciplinary workshop that will address the research needs in the areas of Modeling, Dynamics, Control and Monitoring of Complex Engineering Systems. It will take place in Anchorage Alaska on May 11 and 12 following the American Control Conference. By scheduling it to follow immediately after the ACC, the cost will be substantially lower since most of the participants will already be on site and the meeting rooms on Saturday will be free. The organization of the workshop aims to avoid the segregation of issues and challenges along the traditional Engineering disciplines. A systematic effort will be undertaken to consider issues that are common to all engineering fields and breakout sessions will have participants that cover all engineering disciplines.
