Abstract:

The severe impact of human activities on the water resources requires the need to increase the efficiency of water systems. With the rapid development of ICT tools in general, many new opportunities are becoming available also for the water industry.

The aim of this special session is to bring together researchers, scientists and engineers from academia and from industry, so as to share knowledge, experience and ideas in the field of monitoring and control of water systems. Theoretical and practical studies are equally encouraged. The session considers problems related to water and wastewater treatment, water distribution and urban drainage, water irrigation, water desalination. The topics cover a wide range of problems (but not limited to) related to Water Systems (WS):

  • Theoretical and practical advances in modeling, simulation, and control of WS
  • Surveillance and control techniques for WS
  • Hierarchical control of WS
  • Artificial intelligence applications for WS
  • Impact of digitalization in WS
  • Water quality monitoring and management
  • Life cycle assessment for WS
  • Smart technology and IoT’s impact on integrated WS
  • Data-driven approaches for control and operation of WS
  • WS operation for GHG emission minimization
  • Holistic approaches for WS control and operation
  • Climate change impact from WS


Advances in Real Time Process Control and Applications

Organizers: Ciprian Lupu and Dumitru Popescu

Session code: fy5f4


Abstract:

The session is opened for research presentations that bring interesting, relevant scientific work and innovative contributions in the field of modern process control and applications.

The session provides opportunities for researchers and specialists to offer their recent developments and results in control and diagnosis, applied in different domains with technical and economical interest: Energy, Chemistry, Petro-chemistry, Aerospace, Transport, Automotive, Bio-technology. Communications etc. We evaluate and discuss during this session about performance and security issues that arise in process exploitation and management and optimization in real-time applications, by means of automatic control resources and information support.

Appreciated papers should offer modern solutions related to control of systems structures, supported by an adequate theoretical background, implemented and validated in simulation and on industrial applications.

Abstract:


The session aims to underline the intrinsic connection between complex data processing, on one hand, and two important actions in different fields: monitoring and control, on the other hand. The applications of complex images (like texture and fractals), time series, and neural networks in many domains (industry, medicine, agriculture, environment, transportation, and so on) needs interdisciplinary knowledge and effectively solve many encountered problems.

This special session at the 26th International Conference on System Theory, Control and Computing (ICSTCC 2022) provides a forum for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss advances in the research and development of intelligent systems for complex data processing and interpretation based on efficient feature selection and neural networks in the field of monitoring, control and diagnosis. All session papers need to have a high scientific level and will be selected based on their relevance to the session topics.

The included topics are the following (but not limited): Criteria for feature selection, Image processing for real time control, Traffic control based on images, Medical diagnostic systems based on complex data processing, Assistive technologies based on data processing, UAV and robot guidance based on image interpretation, Quality control based on image processing, Texture analysis, Parallel processing of data, Neural networks for data classification and prediction. Papers submitted for this invited session will be treated in the same manner as the regular papers.
