Selected Papers from Conference on Control, Mechatronics and Automation (ICCMA)

Dear Colleagues,

2018 The 6th International Conference on Control, Mechatronics, and Automation (http://www.iccma.org) will be held in Tokyo, Japan on October 12–14, 2018.  It is supported by the International Association of Computer Science & Information Technology.

ICCMA 2013 was held in Sydney (Australia); ICCMA 2014 was held in Dubai (UAE); ICCMA 2015 and ICCMA 2016 were both held in Barcelona (Spain); and ICCMA 2017 was held in University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada. Furthermore, ICCMA 2019 has been announced to be held in TU Delft, Netherlands.

It covers a wide range of fields in mechanical engineering and aims to bring together engineering technology expertise. Suitable topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Intelligent mechatronics, robotics, biomimetic, automation, and control systems
• Biomedical and rehabilitation engineering, prosthetics, and artificial organs
• Control system modeling, and simulation techniques and methodologies
• AI, intelligent control, neuro-control, fuzzy control, and their applications
• Industrial automation, process control, manufacturing processes, and automation
• The application of hydraulic technology
• Fault diagnosis and troubleshooting of hydraulic systems
• The design and use of hydraulic servo systems
• Electromechanical transmission control

Bearing in mind the significance of mechanical control, intelligent mechatronics, and automation, in general, this Special Issue focuses on the recent development of various fields or cross-fields of related topics, and it represents a good opportunity for researchers around the world to disseminate different aspects of their work.

ICCMA2018 will follow up the success of past conferences by bringing together researchers and application developers from different areas focusing on unifying themes. We invite investigators to contribute original research articles to the conference, as well as to the Special Issue.

Prof. Dr. Genci Capi
Guest Editor

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Machines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
