HYCON Benchmark Award Announcement
The objective of the Network of Excellence HYCON is to establish a durable community of leading researchers and practitioners working in hybrid systems control. HYCON provides a Performance Evaluation Platform for testing control technologies of москва пешком экскурсии hybrid systems. Two benchmark problems are included, one of them is a real Solar Air Conditioning Plant and the other a model of an Idle Speed Motor Control system.
People interested in hybrid control systems are encouraged to submit their proposals for benchmark exercises before 02/28/2006. A descption of the processes can be found in the HYCON WP2 web site ( http://nyquist.us.es/hycon/index.php).
If you are interested in participating in the exercise send me () an email describing what type of algorithm you intend to apply and a short CV.
Accepted experiments will be considered eligible for the HYCON Award (1000 Euros). The purpose of this award is to recognize the best experiment from all the accepted proposals.
Experiments proposed for the Solar Plant will be evaluated by the results obtained both in real plant operation and by simulation. The evaluation of the experiment results will be carried out using the criteria detailed on the web site. The experiments on the actual solar plant will be carried out with the help of personnel hired by HYCON and followed through web remote supervision. It will be possible to stay at the plant site during experimentation.
Experiment proposals can be submitted for both the Solar Plant and the Idle Speed Motor Control.
HYCON Outstanding Lecturer Programme
The objective of the Network of Excellence HYCON is to establish a durable community of leading researchers and practitioners working in hybrid systems control. As a part of the HYCON Work Package 6 (Industrial Bridging) activities an "Outstanding Lecturer" Programme will be set up aiming at disseminating hybrid systems methodologies in a way that is suitable for the background of the staff in research and development departments in industry. The goal is to provide a framework through which companies and institutions can meet leading experts in the field of hybrid systems, with the degree of quality guaranteed by the HYCON label.
Lecturers do not need to be members of HYCON to participate, but do need to be world-class researchers, and recognized as such by their peers. The selected lecturers will have the option of accepting whether to take part in the Programme, depending on their availability, as participation is naturally voluntary. All financial arrangements will be directly agreed upon between each "Outstanding Lecturer" and the inviting company/institution.
To launch the process, an initial list of lecturers and topics to be presented to companies and institutions is needed. Please fill out the template for providing the required information for each potential lecturer as precisely as possible and send it to by February 22th; the HYCON WP6 leaders will then select an appropriate set of lectures for the Programme.
