The workshop will address new and state-of-the-art developments in modeling and control of distributed parameter systems and their application. This covers approaches and techniques for the modeling, analysis, control, and observer/estimator design for systems governed by partial differential equations and includes (but is not limited to) methods such as differential geometric and algebraic approaches, semigroup and operator theory, Lyapunov-based and backstepping techniques, passivity and dissipativity, optimal control, controllability and observability analysis, stability theory, model reduction for control, computational methods, real-time control, actuator and sensor placement, experimental design. In addition, applications are considered covering, e.g., smart and adaptive structures in mechatronics, marine systems and aerospace engineering, flow control, energy generation, distribution and storage, process intensification and process systems engineering.

5th IFAC Workshop on Control of Systems Governed by Partial Differential Equations (CPDE) is technically sponsored by IEEE. The proceedings  of this event are likely to be listed in  prestigious databases such as Scopus, Web of Science (WoS), Ei Compendex, DBLP, Google Scholar, and many others.
