U.S.-Australia Joint Seminar: Control Mechanics Applied to Robotics Systems / Los Angeles, CA / January 1989

该奖项将资助由南加州大学的J.M.Skowronski教授和澳大利亚昆士兰大学的G.F.Shannon博士联合举办的题为“控制力学应用于机器人系统”的研讨会。与会者将于1989年1月在加利福尼亚州洛杉矶举行会议，讨论目前在控制机械领域的研究和潜在的合作。内容包括1)不确定系统的控制，2)柔性连杆结构的控制，3)机械系统的决策和协调控制，以及4)应用。这次研讨会是及时的，因为它将汇集美国和澳大利亚在不确定环境下的机器人领域的领先科学家和工程师，以及农业、采矿和其他领域的应用。该研讨会应该会促进美国和澳大利亚在机器人领域的合作研究。

This award will support a seminar, "Control Mechanics Applied to Robotic Systems", organized jointly by Professor J.M. Skowronski of the University of Southern California and Dr. G.F. Shannon of the University of Queensland, Australia. Participants will meet in Los Angeles, California in January 1989 to discuss current research and potential collaboration in the area of control mechanics. Topics to be covered include 1) control of uncertain systems, 2) control of flexible-link structures, 3) decision making and coordination control for mechanical systems, and 4) applications. The workshop is timely in that it will bring together leading American and Australian scientists and engineers in robotics under uncertain environments, with applications to agriculture, mining, and other areas. The workshop should stimulate cooperative research between the U.S. and Australia in robotics.
