Many computational intelligence and learning methods, such as expert systems, neural networks, genetic algorithms and so on have found success in a variety of control and automation fields. Intelligent Control, which differs from conventional approaches based on methodologies derived from Artificial Intelligence[AI] and soft computing techniques, is capable of dealing with problems in diverse computational and communication domains and, more recently, those related to renewable energy and mobile autonomous systems, where conventional methods were unsuccessful. Nevertheless, new technologies such as artificial intelligence, edge computing, and the Internet of Things have led to an unprecedented development of control and intelligent systems. The theme of ICACRS 2024 is “Intelligent Computational Methods, Automation and Emerging trends in renewable energy". The 3rd International Conference on Automation, Computing and Renewable Systems [ICACRS 2024] is devoted to intelligent systems that improve the control of nonlinear systems and its applications and also the novel contributions in all aspects of automation and renewable systems. This conference will provide a knowledge-building and experience-sharing platform for professionals from the industry, academia and research organizations.
