Ctrl-A is an Inria team, based in Grenoble, exploring a scientific theme at the intersection between, on the one hand, computer science and the topics of the CNRS UMR LIG (Laboratoire d'Informatique de Grenoble), and on the other hand, control theory, specialty of the CNRS UMR Gipsa-lab (Grenoble Images Parole Signal Automatique). Given that a joint team between the two can not be built from a CNRS point of view, Ctrl-A is an Inria team independent of them, and features many of its permanent members from each of the laboratories under the status of external collaborators (in the "Others" category below).
