<p>Overview<br>--------------------------------------</p>
<p>The 2011 IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Robotics, Automations and <br>Applications (IRoA-11), co-sponsored by FTRA and IEEE Changwon Section, will <br>be held in Gwangju, Korea, October 20-22, 2011. The IRoA is a major forum for <br>
scientists, engineers, and practitioners throughout the world to present the latest re-<br>search, results, ideas, developments and applications in all areas of intelligent robo-<br>tics and automations. Furthermore, we expect that the IRoA-11 and its publications <br>
will be a trigger for further related research and technology improvements in this <br>important subject. The IRoA-11 is co-sponsored by IEEE Changwon Section and <br>FTRA. In addition the conference is supported by KITCS and KIITFE.</p>
