The 4th IFAC Conference on Proportional-Integral-Derivative Control (PID2024) is a timely and necessary event, driven by the challenges and perspectives of the new digitalization context and the renewed role of the PID controller in this new environment. In addition to provide the current state-of-art in the field, the meeting aims at providing a perspective of the future requirements for PID controllers within the current challenges on industry. In this sense, our aim is to organize a conference with an important participation from both, industry and academia.
This year, a new conference style is proposed. See more information here.
The goal of the conference is to bring together experts from the field of process control to contribute in the following topics (not limited to):
Topics
- PID tuning and automatic tuning methodologies.
- PID-based control structures.
- Applications of PID control.
- Industrial products for PID control design.
- Adaptive and robust PID control.
- Multivariable PID control.
- Identification methods for PID control design.
- Event-based PID control.
- Fractional-order PID controllers.
- PID control performance assessment.
- CACSD tools for PID control design.
- PID Control education.
- Fault detection techniques for PID control.
- Nonlinear PID control.
- Simple alternatives to PID controllers.
- PID control design based on artificial intelligence methods.
Submission information and paper requirements
Regular papers must be between 4 (minimum) and 6 (maximum) pages in the
final version.
Discussion papers are introduced to encourage participation especially from industry and from colleagues outside the traditional academic control community. Such papers should be submitted in the form of extended abstracts typically between 2 and 4 pages in length. Note that discussion papers will appear only in the congress preprints, not in the congress proceedings.

Copyright conditions
All publication material submitted for presentation at an IFAC-sponsored meeting (Congress, Symposium, Conference, Workshop) must be original and hence cannot be already published, nor can it be under review elsewhere. The authors take responsibility for the material that has been submitted. IFAC-sponsored conferences will abide by the highest standard of ethical behavior in the review process as explained on the Elsevier webpage (https://www.elsevier.com/authors/journal-authors/policies-and-ethics), and the authors will abide by the IFAC publication ethics guidelines (https://www.ifac-control.org/events/organizers- guide/PublicationEthicsGuidelines.pdf/view).
Accepted papers that have been presented at an IFAC meeting will be published in the proceedings of the event using the open-access IFAC-PapersOnLine series hosted on ScienceDirect (https://sciencedirect.com/).
