Measurement and control – Applications for the operator

Following a long series of biannual events with rich history extending back to the 1980s, the Control Systems 2006 Conference will be held in Tampere, Finland June 6-8th, 2006 with the workshop of COST Action E36 Modeling and Simulation in the Pulp&Paper Industry on June 5th as a pre-event. COST Action is a European Commission sponsored form of networking, the present workshop being open to participants outside the EU as well.
