The PiCCS workshop took place at Luleå University of Technology on 16th and 17th of August 2017. In total 20 researcher and engineers from industry participated in the event. The main aim of the workshop was to bring together expert in the field of Control Configuration Selection (CCS), which is a sub-field in the research area Automatic Control, to discuss the current state of the art and identify remaining challenges in the field. The identified challenges were formulated as future directions and are summarized in this report, together with an account of the discussion during these two days. The workshop explored the following topics Implementing optimal operation using simple control elements, Real time optimisation approach in control structure design and benchmarking, Data driven control configuration selection, and Reconfiguration of control structures. Based on the outcome of the discussion, a group of participants proposed an invited session for the 2018 IFAC AdChem Symposium, which has been accepted at the time of the publication of this report and consists of 6 papers addressing challenges discussed during the workshop.
