Call for Papers IET Control Theory OPEN ACCESS PUBLISHING NOW & Applications AVAILABLE Special Issue: Data-based control and process monitoring with industrial applications Modern industry-related applications such as industrial electronics, business management systems, public sectors etc. generate about over one thousand Exabyte annually, and a 20-fold increase is expected in the next ten years. The arrival of a data epoch has made it more important than ever to use and interpret the embedded information. Efficient capture and analysis of the available data have the potential to enhance productivity and competitiveness in a wide range of electrical and electronics sectors. Instead of seeking accurate physical system models, engineers prefer the advanced model-free techniques in system control and monitoring in order to optimize the performance of the whole process by basing it only on the large amounts of measured data. Moreover, practical control systems in other industrial fields such as supply chain management and risk management can be further improved by employing big data solutions. Based on these observations, novel approaches focused on data are imperative and critical to the future developments of modern industry. The common aim of data-based control and process monitoring with industrial applications is the effective utilization of huge amounts of measured or stored data to achieve the normal running and the desired performance of the processes under consideration. The objective of this Special Issue is to provide the recent advances of data-based system control and monitoring approaches in modern industrial applications. The papers should contain both theoretical and practical/experimental results. Topics to be covered in this special issue include, but are not limited to the following: n Novel techniques for data analysis and mining n Data based fault diagnosis and healthy monitoring n Data based modeling and system identification n Data based solution for supply chain and risk management system n Data based solution focused on control and process monitoring n Big data challenges and the future of industry n Data based plant-wide optimization and prognosis n Data based applications for modern industrial systems All submissions are subject to the journal’s peer-review procedures. The authors should follow the journal’s Author Guide at http://digital-library.theiet.org/journals/author-guide when preparing papers for submission to the Special Issue.
