CCDC 2009

Chinese Control and Decision Conference (CCDC) is an annual international conference. The 2009 Chinese Control and Decision Conference (2009 CCDC) is the 21st of the series and will be held in Guilin, China in June 2009. Its purpose is to create a forum for scientists, engineers and practitioners throughout the world to present the latest advancement in Control, Decision, Automation, Robotics and Emerging Technologies.

The Proceedings of 2009 CCDC will be indexed by ISTP and included in the IEEE Xplore database, as well as indexed by EI Compendex(to be confirmed).
