Welcome to IMAACA 2025!
Dear Sir/Madam,
innovations and improvements are required to react quickly to the new trends of the global economy. Over the years, Modeling & Simulation (M&S) has proved to be one of the most effective, beneficial and successful methodologies to investigate and study complex systems belonging to various sectors/areas. Nevertheless, to take full advantage of this technology there are relevant issues that keep challenging the researchers towards even more advanced solutions and approaches where emerging and cutting-edge technologies are absorbed into. M&S is widely and successfully applied in many application domains, ranging from industry to social sciences, from logistics to military, from energy to healthcare; in this sense M&S provides a multidisciplinary perspective where theory and data from different fields can be used to build models and simulations that provide insights in to the system considered.
The 2025 International Conference On Integrated Modeling And Analysis in Applied Control And Automation (IMAACA) will be a platform for knowledge exchange, the review and discussion of theoretical advances, research results, and industrial experiences, among scientists, researchers, decision makers, practitioners and students dealing with the topics under the umbrella of multidisciplinary modeling & simulation.
Therefore, we would like to kindly invite you to take an active part in this conference and in the co-located events that will be held at Fes, Morocco on September 17-19, 2025 and explore with us the latest news, views and developments in the exciting world of multidisciplinary modeling & simulation.
Sincerely,
I3M 2025 Organization Committee

Affiliation: Université du Québec, Canada
Track Description: The share increase of renewable sources in hybrid energy systems is an excellent tool to reduce costs and GHG emissions. However, the variability and intermittence of renewable sources require their integration with energy storage and other sources, primarily using fossil fuels. In this context, artificial intelligence is commonly considered a tool for optimizing renewable energy conversion according to resource availability, smart grid strategies, and load management. Therefore, we invite contributions to optimizing hybrid energy systems based on artificial intelligence approaches.
Please be sure to select “Artificial Intelligence to Increase Renewable Share in Hybrid Energy Systems” as main topic during the submission.

Track Description: The increasing complexity of technical systems, that continuously embrace more physical domains and technical areas, along with the stringency imposed on their performance specifications, as well as the desired reduction of production time and costs, altogether call for design solutions that simultaneously integrate the various subfields of engineering involved in their development. Supporting a model-based approach concurrently applied at all design stages, Mechatronics provides the answer to these problems. It brings together, in a coordinated interplay, the knowledge, information and techniques of the different engineering disciplines in order to optimize the development process and the final product. This synergically integrated approach conveys an intrinsic complexity for the system design process. Thus, new concepts, techniques and tools are being looked-for by the community involved in mechatronics R&D. Therefore, we invite the members of this community to submit contributions on these subjects to this special session, as well as on applications in the electromechanical and hydromechanical domains, robotics, manufacturing, automation, etc.
