IEEE/CAA Journal of Automatica Sinica (JAS) is pleased to present the conference on MetaSystems: MetaControl and DeControl, to be held on September 22-24, 2023 in Beijing, China.

The conference is 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 MetaSystems: MetaControl and DeControl. The conference brings a two-day meeting, being organized by North China University of Technology and co-organized by Beijing Institute of Technology and Southwest University. It is devoted to recent advances in cyber-physical systems, autonomous systems, data-driven control, and cognitive intelligence.

Papers must be written in English and must describe the original work. Accepted papers will be distributed as widely as possible over the fields of cyber-physical systems, autonomous systems, and data science. Most excitingly, all accepted original papers, which must be presented or posted at the conference, will be recommended to and published in the IEEE/CAA JAS as Letter when passing peer review.

The conference also accepts the report at special sessions from the authors, where the reported topic should come from their regular papers or reviews published in IEEE/CAA JAS in 2022 or 2023.

Call for Papers

This conference consists of four Special Sessions:

● Special Session 1: Control and security of cyber-physical systems

● Special Session 2: Intelligent control of autonomous systems

● Special Session 3: Data-driven modeling, prediction and control

● Special Session 4: Graph learning and cognitive intelligence

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 August 20, 2023 via online submission and review system: https://mc03.manuscriptcentral.com/ieee-jas. The length of accepted papers published in the IEEE/CAA JAS as Letter cannot exceed 3 pages.

The submission should be noted on the first page with “2^nd Conference & Special Session M”, where “M” stands for the selected index of special sessions.
