(AIM 2018) will be held on July 9-12, 2018, in Auckland, New Zealand.
The AIM 2018 conference brings to gether an international community of experts to discuss the state-of-the-art, new research results, perspectives of future developments, and innovative applications relevant to mechatronics, robotics, control, automation, and related areas.
The sponsors and organisers of AIM 2018 invite a submission of high quality mechatronics research papers describing original work, including the following topics: Actuators, Automotive Systems, Bioengineering, Data Storage Systems, Electronic Packaging, Fault Diagnosis, Human-Machine Interfaces,Industry Applications, Information Technology, Intelligent Systems, MachineVision, Manufacturing, Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems, Micro/Nano Technology,Modeling and Design, System Identification and Adaptive Control, MotionControl, Vibration and Noise Control, Neural and Fuzzy Control, Opto-ElectronicSystems, Optomechatronics, Prototyping, Real-Time and Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation, Robotics, Sensors, System Integration, Transportation Systems,Smart Materials and Structures, Energy Harvesting, and other frontier fields.
All contributed and invited papers, tutorial and workshop proposals, and invited and special session proposals must be uploaded through the submissionwebsite according to the deadlines below.
All papers go through arigorous review process. Accepted papers will be presented by their authors atthe conference. All accepted peer-reviewed manuscripts will be published in theconference proceedings, and will be submitted for inclusion in IEEEXplore and EI Compendex, subject to formatting and copyright requirements.
Proposals are invited forhalf-day or full-day tutorials and workshops.
Workshops explore the frontiersof recent or emerging topics in mechatronics, while tutorials provide afoundation for future self-study in important area of mechatronics. Tutorialand workshop proposals must include: (1) a statement of objectives, (2) adescription of the intended audience, and (3) a list of speakers with anoutline of their planned presentations. Unless specifically requested,individual tutorial and workshop presentations are not peer reviewed, and donot appear in the proceedings.
Proposals are invited forinvited and special sessions (IS/SS). Invited Sessions consist of 4 to 6 thematically related Invited Papers. IS proposals consist of a brief statementof purpose and extended abstracts of the included Invited Papers. InvitedPapers are submitted and reviewed following the same process as ContributedPapers, and are included in the proceedings. To create an invited session code, please submit an Invited session proposal, and then a code will be automatically created and sent to you by email.
All eligible peer-reviewedpapers will be considered for the Best Conference Paper Award and the Best Student Paper Award.
