CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS

The 2014 American Control Conference (ACC) will be held Wednesday through Friday, June 4-6, at the Hilton Portland & Executive Tower. The ACC is the annual conference of the American Automatic Control Council (AACC), the U.S. national member organization of the International Federation for Automatic Control (IFAC). Member societies of the AACC include AIAA, AIChE, ASCE, ASME, IEEE, ISA, SCS, and SIAM. More than 1000 control professionals from all over the world typically attend an ACC.
