About
The 16th Mediterranean Conference on Control and Automation, MED'08, will be held for the first time in Ajaccio, France, at the Congress Centre from June 25-27, 2008. Ajaccio is situated on the French island, Corsica. The Greeks were the first to discover the beautiful island of Ajaccio, naming it "kalliste" (old greek) meaning 'the beautiful'. Ajaccio was founded in 1492 as a Genoan town. Corsica was at that time under the authority of the Genoan Bank of Saint George. The great war general, Napoleon Bonaparte was born in the little town which is steeped in Napoleonic history and memorabilia. Surrounded by an admirable cirque of mountains, elegant and radiant Ajaccio welcomes delighted visitors to its sunny shores. From the top of its citadel’s ramparts, Ajaccio has kept the purity of its shores intact, shores, which are said to be amongst the most beautiful in the world. Through the alleys of the old town, discover its Napoleonic history, its prestigious museums, and the daily market full of different flavours...
