Deadline for Abstract Submission Extended to December 31, 2024

The theme of Sustainable Automation and Control concentrates on development and transformation of both industry and society through effective coexistence of man and machine.

Automation, with its ability to streamline processes, optimize resource utilization, and reduce waste, offers a powerful toolkit for advancing sustainability goals. From smart energy management systems to efficient manufacturing processes, automation holds immense potential to drive positive environmental and social outcomes.

Sustainable automation encompasses the integration of automation technologies with sustainability principles to achieve environmental, economic, and social benefits. It involves designing, implementing, and managing automated systems in a way that minimizes environmental impact, maximizes resource efficiency, and promotes social equity.

The conference will try to explore the interrelationship between automation and sustainable development and the opportunities for collaborative development. In this regard experts, scholars, and representatives from academia, industry, and society will gather to share the latest research findings, innovative cases, and cutting-edge perspectives. Their collective participation and discussion of their research findings will help in sustainable development for a better future

Automation can cater to sustainable transformation of various sectors like manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, defence, clean energy, climate change, consumer products, health care, smart transportation, e-commerce, smart cities, agriculture, inventory management, social justice, etc. Therefore, the agenda of this conference aims to showcase the role and potential of automation technology in driving economic, social, and environmental sustainability.
