Practical details. The meeting will be held at CESAME, Euler Building, Université catholique de Louvain, 4, av. G. Lemaître, Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium. The meeting is organized within the framework of the IUAP on V/22 on Dynamical Systems and Control. Registration is free but participants must register before July 12 by sending an email to: termolle@auto.ucl.ac.be. Travel instructions to the Euler Building can be found here.
