The 13th International Conference on Informatics in Control, Automation and Robotics (ICINCO 2016 - http://www.icinco.org) steering committee cordially invites you to submit a paper to the ICINCO 2016 Conference, to be held in Lisbon, Portugal. The deadline for paper submission is scheduled for March 8, 2016.

The purpose of the 13th International Conference on Informatics in Control, Automation and Robotics (ICINCO) is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in the application of informatics to Control, Automation and Robotics. Four simultaneous tracks will be held, covering Intelligent Control Systems, Optimization, Robotics, Automation, Signal Processing, Sensors, Systems Modelling and Control, and Industrial Engineering, Production and Management. Informatics applications are pervasive in many areas of Control, Automation and Robotics; This conference intends to emphasize this connection.

We would like to highlight the presence of the following keynote speakers:

• Sethu Vijayakumar, The University of Edinburgh, United Kingdom
• Houria Siguerdidjane, Supelec, France
• Roland Siegwart, ETH Zurich, Switzerland
• Richard D. Braatz, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, United States
• Fumiya Iida, University of Cambridge, United Kingdom

Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support.

The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP, EI (Elsevier Engineering Village Index) and Scopus.

All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/). SCITEPRESS is a member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/).

Best paper awards will be distributed during the conference closing session. Please check the website for further information (http://www.icinco.org/BestPaperAward.aspx).

Workshops, Special sessions, Tutorials as well as Demonstrations dedicated to other technical/scientific topics are also envisaged: companies interested in presenting their products/methodologies or researchers interested in holding a tutorial are invited to contact the conference secretariat. Workshop chairs and Special Session chairs will benefit from logistics support and other types of support, including secretariat and financial support, to facilitate the development of a valid idea.

ICINCO 2016 will be held in conjunction with SIMULTECH 2016 (http://www.simultech.org/) in Lisbon, Portugal. Registration to ICINCO will enable free attendance to any sessions of SIMULTECH conferences as a non-speaker.

CONFERENCE CHAIR:
Kurosh Madani, University of Paris-EST Creteil (UPEC), France
