Shiv Nadar Institution of Eminence hosts the Eighth International Conference on Advances in Control and Optimization of Dynamical Systems (ACODS 2024)

Greater Noida, 14 March 2024: Shiv Nadar Institution of Eminence (IoE), Delhi-NCR, is hosting the Eighth International Conference on Advances in Control and Optimization of Dynamical Systems – ACODS till 15th March 2024 at the university premises. The scope of the conference is around theoretical developments and advances in practical applications including machine learning and Artificial Intelligence techniques in areas like nuclear energy, wind turbines, predictive analysis, wireless networks, space exploration, healthcare, among others. Prof. (Dr.) T G Sitharam, Chairman, All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) was the Chief Guest of the event.

Welcoming the delegates to ACODS 2024, Dr. Suneet Tuli, Dean Research & Partnerships and Dean School of Engineering Shiv Nadar University, Delhi- NCR, said, “Living in an interconnected world, with security, communication, energy, and healthcare becoming issues of national concern, the conference will provide a platform to deliberate on and find sustainable solutions.”

ACODS 2024 brings together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and research laboratories to discuss new developments and advances in the control and optimisation of dynamic systems. Prof. (Dr.) T G Sitharam, Chairman All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), graced the event as the Chief Guest.

Giving his opening address, Prof. Radhakant Padhi, IISc, Bangalore said his association with Shiv Nadar University goes back a long time as he did his Ph.D. under the guidance of late Dr. S.N. Balakrishnan who was the Chancellor of Shiv Nadar University. Prof. Padi said the conference was also holding a special session in his memory.

Beginning with workshops and tutorials on emerging and proven technologies in different areas of control, the conference will see six plenary talks by leading researchers offering an overview of research in control, systems biology, identification, robotics, learning theory, space exploration, challenges, and future trajectories. The conference’s highlight will also be the 79 paper presentations by researchers from prestigious institutions across India and abroad.

It is a biennial flagship conference of the Automatic Control and Dynamic Optimization Society (ACDOS), the Indian national member organisation of the International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC). This biennial conference at Shiv Nadar Institution of Eminence is a continuation of the series held earlier at IISc Bangalore, IIT Kanpur, NIT Tiruchirappalli, DRDO Hyderabad, and IIT Madras.

Beginning with workshops and tutorials on emerging and proven technologies in different areas of control on March 12, the four-day conference will see six plenary talks by leading researchers offering an overview of research in control, systems biology, identification, robotics, learning theory, space exploration, challenges, and future trajectories. The conference’s highlight will also be the 79 paper presentations by researchers from prestigious institutions across India and abroad.
