Dear Colleagues,
We are delighted to invite you to the upcoming workshop on Certified Control Synthesis for Robotic Systems, taking place on June 24, 2025, as part of the 23rd European Control Conference (ECC) in Thessaloniki, Greece.
The workshop aims to explore recent advances in ensuring the safety, stability, and performance of robotic systems operating in complex, dynamic, and uncertain environments. Certified control synthesis leverages formal methods, control theory, and machine learning to derive controllers with rigorous performance guarantees — a crucial step toward reliable autonomous systems.
We invite submissions of 1–2 page extended abstracts (excluding references) or a preprint of relevant work. Accepted contributions will be posted on the workshop website but will not be part of the official IEEE proceedings. The review process will be single-blind and conducted by the organizers.
Please submit your contribution by May 19, 2025. Notifications of acceptance will be sent by June 2, 2025.
More details about submissions are available on the workshop website: https://sites.google.com/view/ecc2025ws/call-for-papers
