Forwarded message: workshop on dynamic control
Hello folks,
I would like to forward the following message from
VACETS. The NSF is looking and funding for people from VN (10
people) to take part in the workshop on Dynamics and Control
(ME, EE or CE major).
Is there any of you in this list, who are working on
this area?

> Thanks for your e-mail. I was asked by Dr. Dev Garg and Dr. Kishen
> Baheti to develop a proposal for a Japan-USA-Vietnam Workshop on
> Control Education and Research. NSF would like to fund the travel of
> 8-10 particpants from USA with a total budget of 20K. Professor
> Katsuhisa Furuta was also asked and we are working jointly. Furuta has
> a contact person in Vietnam and we have sent an e-mail to him. I will
> send you a copy of the mail to you.
>
> Since I do not know in the ME control community who is originally from
> Vietnam, and I asked Dr. Garg whether he knows anyone. He suggested me
> your name, and he thinks that your area is closely related to controls
> and you are a right resource person. I will be happy to have you as
> one of participants from the US. We would like to have a mixture of
> senior and young control people from the United States. We were told
> that it will be nice to have a gender mixture also.
>
> You will be able to help us in several regards. For example, is there
> anyone beside yourself who should be included in the participant list
> because of a strong tie to Vietnam? How can we plan the workshop so
> that potential benefits for everyone will be maximized. Professor
> Furuta visited Vietnam last year, and he told me that research in
> Vientnam is more on mathematical programming, and so on, and he did not
> see much education and research to let students prepared for industrial
> challenges. What will be potential industries in Vietnam which might
> get benefits from the workshop?
>
> I discussed with Furuta and several names came to our mind as potential
