Introduction
In the past forty years, communication networks have been widely used in distributed control systems.  More recently, wireless networks started to be introduced in industrial automation and process control. There are several advantages as well as limitations in using wireless networking in industrial control applications. The main benefits are associated with cost and flexibility in general, whereas the main concerns are security and reliability, followed by the fact that there is little knowledge available and few industrial applications.


Topics
This special session is a multi-disciplinary session which involves the fields of communication and industrial control.
The aim is to bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss the state-of-the art in the use of wireless network in industrial control systems.
Papers should focus on the latest research developments to overcame the strict real-time and reliability requirements imposed by industrial control systems as well as the successful real-world deployment of wireless control in industries.
