Sponsoring Organizations

Author Information

All conference submissions must be done through PaperPlaza and submitted by September, 27, 2013. There will be no extensions to the September 27th due date. Authors of accepted papers are expected to attend the ACC and present their work.

Contributed papers

A contributed paper is intended to be a complete description of finished work. Accepted papers are limited to 6 pages in the conference proceedings at no extra charge; up to two extra pages are allowed for a charge of USD 200 each. Note that there is no separate short paper format.

Invited Sessions

Invited session proposals should present a unified theme from diverse viewpoints. Each proposal should consist of a summary statement and six regular papers (not abstracts). The organizer notifies Contributing Authors (CAs) of their invited session code. The corresponding author of each paper submits the paper online (pdf format) as an invited paper. Submission as an invited paper requires the invited session code.

Industry & Application Tutorial Sessions

Industry & Applications Tutorial Session Proposals should address the development and/or application of state-of-the-art control approaches & theory to real-world engineering applications. A typical session starts with one 40- or 60-minute talk on the underlying theory or application area. After the lead presentation, there are usually several 20-minute talks highlighting particular aspects or applications of the topic area in further detail.

Special Sessions

A brief description of the session, indicating the topic(s) to be covered and who will be making presentations in the session, should be submitted electronically (through Paperplaza). Special sessions usually do not include presentations of papers that are peer-reviewed and included in the conference proceedings. For more information, or to discuss possible special session topics, please contact the Vice Chair for Special Sessions, Sahika Genc.

  • At least one of the authors listed on the paper must register for ACC 2014 at the full member/non-member rate to upload the final manuscript.
