The International Symposium on Mechatronics and its Applications (ISMA'13) is the ninth of a series of symposia focusing on theoretical and practical aspects of Mechatronics and is a listed IEEE conference. This international symposium will be hosted by Jordan University in Amman, the capital of Jordan. ISMA'13 accepts applied, industrial, and original scientific contribution in areas related to mechatronics such as robotics, autonomous systems technologies, computer integrated manufacturing systems. Submitted papers will undergo at least two peer reviews. Accepted papers should be presented at the conference in order to be eligible for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. The symposium covers the synergetic integration of mechanical engineering with electronics, intelligent control, design and manufacturing of industrial products and processes.
