he 2nd IEEE/ASME International Conference on Mechatronic and Embedded Systems and Applications (MESA06) will be held in Beijing, China, from August 13 to 16, 2006. Mechanical and electrical engineering show an increasing integration of mechanics with electronics and information processing. This integration is between the components (hardware) and the information-driven functions (software), resulting in integrated systems called mechatronic systems. The development of mechatronic systems involves finding an optimal balance between the basic mechanical structure, sensor and actuator implementation, automatic digital information processing and overall control for which embedded systems play a key role. The field of embedded system is getting more and more challenging, and issues in development of embedded software are attracting attention of an increasing number of researchers both in industry and academia. The goal of MESA06 is to bring together experts from the fields of mechatronic and embedded systems to disseminate the recent advances made in the area, discuss the future research directions, and exchange application experience with respect to the conference themes.
