Control Engineering and Applied Informatics

The Journal is promoting theoretical and practical results in a large research field of Control Engineering and Technical Informatics. It has been published since 1999 under the Romanian Society of Control Engineering and Technical Informatics coordination, in its quality of IFAC Romanian National Member Organization and it appears quarterly. Each issue has up to 12 papers from various areas such as control theory, computer engineering, and applied informatics. Basic topics included in our Journal since 1999 have been time-invariant control systems, including robustness, stability, time delay aspects; advanced control strategies, including adaptive, predictive, nonlinear, intelligent, multi-model techniques; intelligent control techniques such as fuzzy, neural, genetic algorithms, and expert systems; and discrete event and hybrid systems, networks and embedded systems. Application areas covered have been environmental engineering, power systems, biomedical engineering, industrial and mobile robotics, and manufacturing. Besides articles, this publication contains book views, correspondence and announcement regarding major scientific events organized in the area of Control Engineering and Technical Informatics, as well as PhD thesis presentations. The Journal is supporting a forum for both theoretical and applied aspects of control and information technology and is elaborated in two versions: a theoretical version, including original papers whose contents has never been published before, and a version including papers of applicative quality, relevant for their technological contents and aiming at practical results. An important part of the mission of the Journal is to promote the C3 paradigm: computers and communications for control. A recent interest of the Journal consists in inclusion of cognitive techniques for achieving intelligent control under the C4 (C3+cognition) paradigm.
