ISICT 2012 will be held at the University of Westminster in London, United Kingdom, 11-13 July 2012.

The 8th IEEE International Symposium on Instrumentation and Control Technology (ISICT 2012) provides an established forum for scientists and engineers on the field of Instrumentation and Control Technology to meet and exchange information about novel and emergent development, applications in Measurement, Sensors, Instrumentation and Control Technology areas.

Building upon the success of the 1st-7th ISICT series conferences over the last decade, The 8th IEEE International Symposium on Instrumentation and Control Technology will take place in city of London, the first city to officially host the modern Olympic Games three times. Like the celebration of the Olympic Games encompasses many rituals and symbols, the ISICT 2012 shall continue the tradition of bringing together top specialists in the broad area of Measurement, Sensors, Instrumentation, Computer Control Technology and allow participants from all over the world to celebrate and enjoy the incomparable platform for knowledge mining, idea exchanging and collaboration discussing.

All submitted papers to ISICT 2012 will be thoroughly reviewed for possible inclusion in the Conference Proceedings. Proceedings of the symposium will be published by IEEE and indexed by EI. Papers are invited in English only, including but not limited to the following related topics:
