The 60th IEEE conference on Decision and Control will be held Monday through Wednesday, December 13-15, 2021 at the Fairmont Hotel, Austin, Texas, USA. The conference will be preceded by workshops on Sunday, December 12, 2021.
Important Notice
At the same time, we are looking at ways in which partial conference attendance could be possible virtually as well for those unable or unwilling to travel. And, of course, as this is a highly uncertain, dynamically evolving system, the plans may have to be revisited as we get closer to the conference dates.

Deadline Extension
Due to the recent severe weather events that have significantly impacted many members of our scientific communities and to recognize the additional hardships imposed by the covid-19 pandemic – hardships that have been shown to disproportionally affect female researchers – we are extending the initial paper submission deadline by one week to Thursday, March 25, 2021.

You are invited to a Hip, Diverse, and Green CDC on its 60th anniversary!
The 60th IEEE conference on Decision and Control will be held Monday through Wednesday, December 13-15, 2021 at the Fairmont Hotel, Austin, Texas, USA. The conference will be preceded by workshops on Sunday, December 12, 2021.
The CDC is recognized as the premier scientific and engineering conference dedicated to the advancement of the theory and practice of systems and control. The CDC annually brings together an international community of researchers and practitioners in the field of automatic control to discuss new research results, perspectives on future developments, and innovative applications relevant to decision making, systems and control, and related areas.
The 60th CDC will feature contributed and invited papers, as well as workshops and tutorial sessions. It is hosted by the IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS) in cooperation with the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM), the Japanese Society for Instrument and Control Engineers (SICE), and the European Control Association (EUCA).
The conference will take place in the Fairmont Hotel in Austin, Texas. Austin is known as the “Live Music Capital of the World” and is the home to the University of Texas at Austin as well as the Texas State Capital. The city features many high-tech companies and start-ups and is renown for its vibrant food and and culture scenes. As Austin’s unofficial slogan is “Keep Austin Weird”, the 60th CDC has embraced this aspect of the host city and has incorporated a number of non-traditional elements in the program.
