Our goals

The field of Discrete Event Systems (DES) has emerged to provide a formal treatment of many man-made systems such as automated manufacturing systems, communication networks, automated traffic systems and computer systems. The primary objective of the TC on Discrete Event Systems is to promote communication between DES researchers, students, and practitioners. Hence, the goal of the TC is to provide a basis for the exchange of information and ideas among researchers and practitioners through scientific events, such as special conference sessions, tutorials and journal special issues.

What we are doing

  • Organized 2 special sessions (on Discrete Event Systems & Medical Mechatronic Systems respectively) of 10 papers (collected & accepted) for the 2005 SMC Conference.
  • Organized tutorial course for the 2005 SMC Conference.
  • Organized conferences or workshops sponsored by the SMC Society: the 2005 International Conference on Networking, Sensing and Control.
  • Organized a special session at the 2005 WSEAS Int. Conference on Dynamical Systems and Control.
  • Organized the special issue on "Advances in Heterogeneous and Complex System Integration" of the IEEE Transactions on SMC - Part A.
  • Organized the special issue on "Engineering Applications of Petri Nets" of the IEEE Transactions on SMC - Part C.
  • Organized a special issue for the International Journal of Computer Integrated Manufacturing, March-May 2005.
  • Organized 3 special/Invited Sessions at SMC-2006
  • Organized special/Invited Sessions at SMC-2007
  • Organized special/Invited Sessions at SMC-2008
  • TC Co-Chair, Prof. Jeng, serves as Program Co-chair. Our member, Prof. Zhou, serves as General Co-Chair at the 2006 SMC Conference
  • Doct. Mariagrazia DOTOLI, prof. Slim HAMMADI and the TC Co-chair Maria Pia Fanti organized the session "Supply Chain Modeling and Management" at the Multiconference CESA 2006, co-sponsored by IEEE.
  • Prof. Mengchu Zhou is General Chair of 2006 IEEE Int. Conf. on Networking, Sensors and Control, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, U.S.A. April 23-25, 2006.
  • Prof. Mengchu Zhou is General Chair of the 2008 IEEE International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering, CASE 2008, August 24-25, 2008, Whashington D.C., USA.
  • Prof. Mengchu Zhou has organized the Workshop on Petri Nets and Agile Manufacturing, June 24-25, 2008 - Xi'an, China, a satellite event of the Petri Nets 2008 29th International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets and Other Models of Concurrency, Xi'an, China, June 23-27, 2008.
