Technical Program Co-Chair’s Message

On behalf of the technical program committee, we are delighted to welcome allof you to the International Symposium on Nonlinear Theory and Its Applications(NOLTA 2010). NOLTA 2010’s technical program covers topics in a variety of areas of nonlinear circuits and theory, bifurcation and chaos, design and analysis ofnonlinear oscillators, neural networks, circuit and systems, complex systems, control and robotics, time series analysis, and so on. We are confident that the attendees
will enjoy the technical program. In total, 162 papers including 78 special session
papers are scheduled for presentations in 38 sessions. These papers were submitted
from 21 countries. NOLTA 2010 also features three exciting plenary talks. Topics of the plenary talks are: “Nonlinear Dynamics of Biological Rhythms” by Prof.
Albert Goldbeter (Universite Libre de Bruxelles, Belgium), “Advanced PI/SI/EMI
Simulation Technology for High-Speed Electronic Design” by Prof. Hideki Asai
(Shizuoka University, Japan) and “Asymptotic Behaviour of Blinking (Stochastically Switched) Dynamical Systems” by Prof. Martin Hasler (EPFL, Switzerland).
We are pleased to have these speakers presenting their latest research topics. Wewould like to oﬀer special thanks to the reviewers, the technical program committee, consisting 25 committee members, the special session co-chairs, the organizersof special sessions, for their dedicated services. We also would like to thank the session chairs for their fine contributions to the technical program. Finally, our sincere
thanks also go to the all authors for their excellent contributions and participationin NOLTA 2010. Thank you very much for all of the participants. We really hopethat all of you enjoy the fruitful technical discussions in Krakow!
