CEMLab (Control and Energy Management Laboratory) is a research laboratory at the National Engineering School of Sfax (ENIS), University of Sfax. It gathers researchers, teachers and doctoral students working on control systems, energy management, robotics and artificial vision.
Our research focuses on four main themes: process control and optimization; electrical energy networks and renewable energies; robot control and navigation; and artificial vision and pattern recognition for medical diagnosis and biometrics.
The laboratory organizes and co-organizes scientific events, including the International Multi-Conference on Systems, Signals and Devices (SSD), the International Conference on Image Processing and Applications (IPAS), and the control & energy sessions co-organized at IEEE STA 2026. The full programme is listed on our events page.
