Taking Control Research to Practice Workshop
Tuesday, Aug. 15, 2023, 9 a.m. through Tuesday, Aug. 15, 2023, 4:30 p.m.
IEEE Conference on Control Technology and Applications - Bridgetown, Barbados
Control technology is ubiquitous across industry sectors and application domains: aerospace and automotive, robotics and manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, buildings and facilities, biomedical and healthcare, industrial processes, and more. Yet, for researchers in control science and engineering—whether graduate students, faculty, or industrial staff—the pathways to real-world impact can seem mysterious and murky. How does one go from research to practice and how can that transition be facilitated?
Organized by Tariq Samad and Alisa Rupenyan, this workshop will convene leaders in control, with experience across industry and academia, to discuss how the impact of control technology can be furthered. Either in current roles or recent positions, workshop presenters represent experience including:
- Taking research to commercial offerings;
- Leading control-driven innovation in multiple industry sectors;
- Graduate and professional education in technology management;
- Leading industry/university collaboration initiatives;
- Publications and presentations related to the workshop topic.
In addition to prepared presentations, the workshop program will include time for discussion and debate. We will also hold a breakout session in which participants, in smaller groups, will apply the frameworks and tools taught in the workshop to innovations they are working on or are familiar with.
