Aims and Scope
Detailed topics and submission information
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
- Aerospace engineering and space 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
Publication opportunities
