The 18th Workshop on Discrete Event Systems offers a platform for researchers across several domains to share insights, explore new ideas, and discuss the latest advances in DES theory and its practical applications. The workshop covers all topics in DES theory and applications, including the following: Academic and industrial formalisms and modeling methodologies for DES; Control of DES with emphasis on supervisory control and real time control; Cyber-security of DES; Methods and applications for performance evaluation, optimization, scheduling, diagnosis, fault detection, testing, and system identification; Model- and synthesis-based engineering; Applications of DES including manufacturing systems, transportation systems, distributed systems, software engineering, biological systems, robotic systems; Discrete-event, -state and -time approaches for modelling, analysis and control of hybrid, stochastic and cyber-physical systems; Discrete-event simulation approaches; AI-integration.

18th International Workshop on Discrete Event Systems (WODES) is technically sponsored by IEEE. The proceedings  of this event are likely to be indexed in  prominent databases such as Scopus, Web of Science (WoS), Ei Compendex, DBLP, Google Scholar, and many others.
