Scientific scope of HMDS 2027
HMDS 2027 is for work that does not sit neatly inside one discipline: models, machines, controllers, software, data, and people working together as one system.
We are especially interested in papers that show how domains interact, where the coupling is difficult, and what the proposed method changes in practice.
Indicative research areas
- Modeling, simulation, design, and digital twins
- Mechanisms, robotics, mechatronics, and autonomous systems
- Control, sensing, estimation, AI, and real-time coordination
- Cyber-physical systems, IoT, and interoperability
- Human-machine, biomedical, bio-hybrid, and energy systems
- Safety, reliability, fault tolerance, and standardization
Full-paper route after the symposium
Accepted symposium contributions will be presented in Tokyo. All peer-reviewed full papers are eligible for publication in Springer's Mechanisms and Machine Science series — an IFToMM-supported book series covering theory, design, robotics, and engineering education.
Welcome to HMDS 2027
Welcome to HMDS 2027. We look forward to hosting colleagues in Tokyo for four days of focused talks, discussion, and new collaborations around heterogeneous and multi-domain systems.
