Chinese Control Conference (International) (briefly, CCC) is inherited from the National Conference on Control Theory and Its Applications. The Technical Committee on Control Theory (TCCT), Chinese Automation Association is responsible for the organization and management of CCC. In 1994, supported by most participants and approved by the Chinese Automation Association, the conference name has been changed to Chinese Control Conference by TCCT. Since 1979 the Conference has been held 29 times in various cities including Xiamen, Guilin, HongKong, Yichang etc. The participants are professors, graduate students, researches and engineers from universities, research institutions, factories and enterprises.

Accompanying the Chinese economical reform, opening door, and the globalization, the ninth TCCT is aimed at making CCC an international conference, which is purposed on providing a forum for not only the communication of domestic scholars but also the academic exchange between Chinese and foreign experts, and a window for Chinese scholars to observe and understand the outside world. To enhance the international exchange, the TCCT has set up an International Exchange Committee. Many oversee Chinese professors are enthusiastically participating the organization works of CCC. Many professors from abroad have also actively attended CCC. Both Chinese and English as official working language in CCC. We warmly welcome our colleagues from the world over to join us.

Keeping its Chinese characteristics, the CCC is fighting for becoming an effective international conference.
