Abstract :
Advances in microelectronics and communication technologies make networked sensing and control feasible. Well known examples include mobile sensor networks for environment monitoring, unmanned aircraft in search and rescue operations, arrays of micro satellites that form a distributed large aperture radar, and vehicle platooning in intelligent transportation systems. The distributed nature of information processing, sensing and actuation makes these applications a significant departure from the traditional centralized control system paradigm. In this talk, we shall discuss some recent developments in distributed cooperative control and optimization and their applications.
