Aims and Scope

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

Message from the Conference Chair

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. The symposium will meet during spring in Japan, and we are pleased to welcome the community to Tokyo at a season associated with renewal, exchange, and new connections.
