XV Symposium on Control Engineering

Organized by the Spanish Automatic Committee (CEA) and the Group for the Control and Supervision of Processes in USAL, the science program revolves around “wide plant control”.

Industrial engineers, physicists, mathematicians coming from different Spanish universities, will meet during these days in the University of Salamanca coordinated by Pastora Isabel Vega, director of the control and supervision of processes and full professor of Computing and Automation.

The aim of the Symposium on Control Engineering is to integrate the doctoral candidates so that they get to know each other and can work together in the future. Control engineering automates whichever process, and its uses can be applied in medicine, biology and industry.
