Description

The CAR conference gathers researchers of the french robotics community interested in the transverse theme of embedded software for controlling autonomous robots.
This event is an opportunity to meet other scientists and get an overview of research currently conducted in french labs.

It intends to be a meeting to expose and discuss gathered expertise, identified trends and issues, as well as new scientific results and applications around software control architectures related topics, through plenary invited papers.

As for precedent editions, the CAR’s scientific committee expects papers and slides in english to favor the international visibility of presented work.
Submissions can be either full papers, or extended summaries (i.e. short papers).
CAR 2013 will be held in conjunction with JDA2013 (Journée des Démonstrateurs en Automatique). Demonstrations and videos are welcome, contact the organisation commitee.

Topic of interest:

• Networked robots, sensors and actuators
• Teleoperation and remote control for networked robots
• Distributed control and communication in swarms
• Coordination in heterogeneous flocks of robots
• Hardware-in-the-loop simulation
• Distributed control architectures technology (eg bio-inspired architecture, …)
• Experience reports and lessons learned from multi-robot case studies
• Models and standards for Robotics
• Task planning
• Interaction between planners and other components of the architecture
• Programming languages for robotics
• Middleware for robotics
• Scientific challenges and perspectives for robotic software

Important Dates

• Paper submission (full paper or extended abstract) : 20th April 2013 (submit paper)
• Notification of acceptance : 3rd May 2013
• Camera ready due: 26th May 2013
• Conference: 12-13 June 2013

Submission Guideline
