 s and control have recently seen the light in Switzerland.The first one is
  the foundation of the Swiss chapter of the IEEE Control Systems Society\,
  to establish a common umbrella\, under the banner of the IEEE Switzerland
  Section\, for promoting activities in the area of control for students\, 
 teachers and professionals. The second one is the National Centre of Compe
 tence in Research «Dependable\, ubiquitous automation»\, NCCR Automation
  for short\, which provides a research and education environment to streng
 then Switzerland's leading role in automation and control technology. The 
 presentation will describe these new initiatives\, highlighting the educat
