Objectives |
The goal of the RAM 2010 is to bring together experts from the field of robotics, automation and mechatronics to discuss on the state-of-the-art and to present new
research findings and perspectives of future developments with respect
to the conference themes. The RAM 2010 is held in conjunction with the
IEEE International Conference on Cybernetics and Intelligent Systems
(CIS 2010). The conference welcomes paper submissions from academics,
researchers, engineers, and students worldwide in but not limited to
the following areas: |
|
|
|
Robotics and
Automation in Unstructured Environment, Personal and Service Robotics,
Underwater Robotics, Medical Robots and Systems, Robotics and
Automation Applications, Sensor Design, Integration, and Fusion,
Computer and Robot Vision, Human-Robot Interfaces, Haptics,
Teleoperation, Telerobotics, and Network Robotics, Micro/Nano,
Distributed, Cellular, and Multi Robots, Biologically-Inspired Robots
and Systems, Sensor Based Robotics, Intelligent Transportation Systems,
Modeling, Planning and Control, Kinematics, Mechanics, and Mechanism
Design, Legged Robots, Wheeled Mobile Robots, Dynamics, Motion Control,
Force/Impedance Control, Architecture and Programming, Methodologies
for Robotics and Automation, Discrete Event Dynamic Systems, Petri
Nets, Virtual Reality, Manufacturing System Architecture, Design, and
Performance Evaluation, Computer Aided Production Planning, Scheduling,
and Control, Total Quality Management, Maintenance, and Diagnostics,
etc.
Upon acceptance, the authors have to register and present their papers at the conference. Only papers that are both registered and presented will be published in the conference proceedings which will then be indexed in the IEEE Library, ISI Proceedings and EI Compendex database. Selected papers will be recommended for Journal publications after substantial revisions.
Selection of the best conference paper will be made at the Conference based on both the technical content and presentation. The winner will be chosen by the Award Committee in consultation with the International Advisory Committee. |

Invited Sessions |
In additional to accepting regular papers, the conference will feature invited sessions on specialized topics of interests. The invited sessions are intended to usher in, in-depth discussions in special areas relevant to the conference theme. The session organizers will coordinate the associated review process. The conference proceedings will include all papers from the invited sessions.
To organize an invited session, please do the following steps:
- Identify a special topic (in the field of your expertise) that is within the topics of interest for CIS 2010, and give a title to your intended invited session. Then, send the information to the Invited Sessions Chair (RAM), Prof. Louis Phee with your name, title and affiliation as soon as possible.
- Upon approval, you may begin to write to researchers who you think are able to submit good papers consistent with your special area of the invited sessions.
- Submit a summary of the Invited Sessions to the Invited Sessions Chair (RAM), Prof. Louis Phee by January 15, 2010. The summary should include the following: Title of the invited session, titles of papers, names, titles and affiliations of the authors/co-authors for each paper.
An invited session should ideally have about 5 to 6 papers. Even if you could only get less than this, proceed on as we could help to find a couple more to fit into your invited session. The invited session organizers may be requested to organize the paper review process.
