The Early Career Advisory Board (ECAB) of IEEE/CAA Journal of Automatica Sinica (JAS) is pleased to present the Symposium Series in 2022 on control, estimation and optimization in networked systems and their applications, to be held online on May 28, 2022.

The Symposium Series is technically sponsored by the IEEE/CAA JAS and aims to provide a research venue for researchers, students and control engineers to exchange ideas and discuss the technical trends and challenges in the area of automation science and engineering. The Series brings together a set of one day or half day symposia at a common site, currently being planned as an online event given the pandemic situation, but IEEE/CAA JAS will be monitoring the pandemic situation and will announce any modifications to this plan. The Series will run multiple times yearly and different symposium topics will be solicited from the current ECAB members.  

The Symposium Series is devoted to recent advances in control, estimation and optimization in networked systems and their applications, hosted by two ECAB members Prof. Lei Ding and Dr. Lei Zou.

Accepted papers will be distributed as widely as possible over the subfields of networked systems, and industrial control systems. Most excitingly, all accepted papers will be recommended to and published in the IEEE/CAA JAS as Letter when passing peer review.

Call for Papers

Topics of contributing papers include, but are not limited to

● Coordinated secure control and estimation

● Recursive state estimation

● Game-based control

● Nash equilibrium seeking

● Data-driven control

● Control and optimization for smart grids/microgrids

Important Dates  

Contributed papers up to 3 to 4 pages  (double column with font size being 9; the template can be found at https://www.ieee-jas.net/news/Information%20for%20Authors.htm) should  be submitted by May 1, 2022 via online submission and review system: https://mc03.manuscriptcentral.com/ieee-jas  

The submission should be noted on the first page with “Symposium Series 4”.

All the authors will receive the notification of acceptance/rejection by May 14, 2022.
