About PCVS2023
The Process Control Virtual Symposium (PCVS2023) is a one-day event organized on 25th November 2023. The virtual symposium aims to provide a convenient platform for researchers and practitioners to share their research and experience dealing with complex problems affecting the industry, society and environment today. As society endeavours to switch to sustainable development in response to non-renewable resource depletion and environmental issues, it is vital to develop new ideas and concepts in process control which in the past has played an instrumental role in supporting the rapid progress in the process industry. Now as never before, with the advances of artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IOTs), vast data are available, but their effective means of utilization to support the switch to sustainable development remain immature. The PCVS2023 attempts in a small way to initiate a conducive platform to spark interest among researchers and industrial practitioners to share new ideas, to propose new conceptual as well as mathematical frameworks and to articulate new problems that can help the development of process control to play a vital role in sustainable development.
