Control and Systems Theory
The SIAM Activity Group on Control and Systems Theory fosters collaboration and interaction among mathematicians, engineers, and other scientists in those areas of research related to the theory of systems and their control. It seeks to promote the development of theory and methods related to modeling, control, estimation, and approximation of complex biological, physical, and engineering systems. The SIAG organizes a biennial conference, sponsors minisymposia at SIAM meetings and periodic conferences, and maintains a member directory and an electronic discussion group. Every two years, the activity group also awards the SIAG/Control and Systems Theory Prize to a young researcher for outstanding research contributions to mathematical control or systems theory and the SIAG/CST Best SICON Paper Prize to the author(s) of the two most outstanding papers published in the SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization (SICON).
