Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The modern control theory of dynamical systems has gradually been applied in engineering practices, even though the vast majority of industrial control systems still rely on the proven classical control theory that is often represented by proportional–integral–derivative controllers. However, challenges created by new technologies, processes and their products, where the application of classical control theory can no longer guarantee the required control quality, must be met with more sophisticated mathematical methods to obtain adequate control algorithms. Thus, higher-order controllers, fractional-order controllers, and adaptive and intelligent control have become more important, where the quality is ensured by criteria formulated in the optimization process. Robust controllers are resistant to parameter changes, and emphasis should also be placed on disturbance attenuation. Control is implemented at the lowest level using embedded computers, and network infrastructures are used at higher control levels. Controlled objects must work together in a common space, while many of them must work autonomously at the same time. To fulfil all these particular goals, new mathematical approaches should be applied so that this development of automation is in line with the revolutionary principles of Industry 4.0 and 5.0.

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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
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. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
