The IEEE SMC Models, Patterns, and Assessment Methodologies: An Interactive Workshop on Shared and Cooperative Control Systems will be held from October 5-8, 2025, as part of the SMC 2025 flagship annual conference of the IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society. The goals of the Workshop are to reinvigorate the community, building upon the past successful workshops at SMC in 2012, 2013, and 2015, and to provide a forum to exchange insights and explore the latest advancements in human-machine systems. This workshop offers valuable insights, bringing together experts and practitioners to explore explainable methods, assessment models, and application-specific insights.
Check out the tentative Workshop Program!
Our invited speakers are also looking forward to the workshop!
You can find further information regarding the manuscript submission.
We look forward to exchanging ideas on this important topic at SMC 2025!
