Welcome to WODES 2018, Sorrento Coast, Italy
The 14th Workshop on Discrete Event Systems will be held at Towers Hotel Stabiae Sorrento Coast, Sorrento Coast, Italy, from May 30 to June 1, 2018. It will provide researchers from different fields (control theoreticians and control engineers, software engineers and computer scientists, operations research specialists) with an opportunity to exchange information and new ideas, and to discuss new developments in the field of DES theory and application.
Sorrento, the Sorrento Peninsula, and the neighboring Amalfi Coast are one of the most popular tourist resorts since the time of the Grand Tour. Its secular hospitality tradition ensures that the thousands of tourists that visit it every year leave with font memories, boast of a receptive ability to satisfy every demand, thanks to the broad range of hotels, bed and breakfasts, and residence facilities as well as restaurants, bar, cafes and numerous shops by the big fashion houses and others. A lot of Italian excellent Michelin-starred restaurants are located in this area.
The Towers Hotel Stabiae Sorrento Coast, located between the magnificent Gulf of Naples and the famous rocks of the Sorrento Peninsula, is a modern four star hotel born from the reconversion of an old cement factory.Its strategic location places the hotel in the center of the most enchanting touristic itineraries of the Campania region, due to its proximity to the Amalfi Coast, Naples, Sorrento, Capri, Pompeii and Herculaneum.
