Welcome
Bienvenidos, Benvinguts, Welcome
On behalf of the local organizing committee we are pleased to welcome you to Barcelona, Spain for the 16th International Conference on Accelerator and Large Experimental Physics Control Systems, ICALEPCS2017. We are honored to host such an important international conference bringing together the control system specialists from many diverse scientific installations across the world. The ICALEPCS series has and continues to play a significant role promoting collaborations, standards and new technologies in the diverse field of control systems. The commitment of all participants and their contributions and dedication makes the success of this series possible.
This edition is preceded by ten satellite workshops, a record number with a good participation, covering different disciplines related with the control systems. The program includes 5 keynote talks, a total of 111 orals, 36 short oral presentations of posters and 18 speakers’ comer live demos.
ICALEPCS2017 is hosted by the ALBA Synchrotron, the Spanish third generation light source in operation since 2012. We would like to thank our colleagues from the local organizing committee as well as all volunteers whose commitment and enthusiasm made the organization of this conference possible. We would also like to thank the international scientific advisory committee and the program committee for their enormous contribution to the success of the conference.
Finally, we would like you enjoy the experience, Barcelona, the program and the networking, and all together make ICALEPCS2017 a memorable event.
We wish you a good stay in this beautiful town, and an excellent conference.
