Announcement  

The 8th International Conference on “Cooperative Control and Optimization” will take place on January 30 - February 1, 2008 in Gainesville, Florida U.S.A. This 3 day event is sponsored by the Air Force Research Laboratory, the Center for Applied Optimization of the University of Florida, and Raytheon, Inc..

Cooperative Control and Optimization has emerged as one of the most exciting research areas that cross several scientific disciplines. Examples of cooperative control systems include robots operating within a manufacturing cell, unmanned aircraft in search and rescue, military surveillance, and attack missions, fusing data from arrays of micro satellites to form a distributed large aperture radar, employees operating within an organization, intelligent software agents, etc.

The purpose of this conference is to bring together scientists and engineers from industry, government, and universities to exchange breaking knowledge and results in a broad range of topics relevant to the theory and practice of cooperative control and optimization.

Continuing the previous successes, the 8th Annual International Conference on Cooperative Control and Optimization will result in a published refereed book containing material summarizing the participants' research in cooperative control and optimization. This book will be published as part of the Lecture Notes in Control and Information Sciences series by Springer. Published books from previous years' conferences can be found here.

Submissions
