A non-profit organization, IEEE is the world's leading professional association for the advancement of technology.
The IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS) was founded in l954 as a scientific, engineering and professional organization dedicated to the advancement of the theory and practice of systems and control in engineering.
The 2012 IEEE Multi-Conference on Systems and Control (MSC 2012) will take place in Dubrovnik Palace Hotel, Dubrovnik, Croatia, on October 3-5, 2012.
MSC 2012 includes two international conferences sponsored and promoted by the IEEE Control Systems Society:
