Modeling and Control
of the COVID-19 Outbreak

"How dynamical models can help control the epidemic outbreak"
Online Workshop
YouTube Channel
IEEE-CSS Italy Online Workshop

Workshop description

The workshop collects very recent contributions of researchers in the systems and control field to the problem of modeling and predicting the dynamics of contagion evolution, presenting solution techniques specifically tailored to the specificities of the COVID-19 outbreak.
The idea is that the workshop should not represent a mere academic exercise, but shall go in the direction of providing concrete tools for assisting our decision makers in managing the next very delicate phases.

The workshop is free of charge, open to everybody, will be held in English, and will be streamed live on the official IEEE-CSS Italy Youtube Channel and through the ZOOM platform.

All content will be recorded and made available on this website after the event.

All times refer to Italian time zone (currently GMT+2)
