Book Optimizing Control of Distributed Cyber Physical Systems

Download or read book Optimizing Control of Distributed Cyber Physical Systems written by Zonglin Liu and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis, a set of modeling and control strategies are proposed for Cyberphysical systems (CPS), which aim at ensuring a safe, reliable, and highly performant operation of each local subsystem contained in the CPS. Modeling of CPS is challenging since not only must the tight interconnection of continuous and discrete dynamics of local subsystems be exactly represented, but so must also the interleaving structure between different subsystems. Optimal control of CPS, accordingly, should take into account not only the local mixed dynamics by local controller synthesis, but also the influence from other subsystems around.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an increasingly connected world, the term cyber-physical networks has been coined to refer to the communication among devices that is turning smart devices into smart (cooperating) systems. The distinctive feature of such systems is that significant advantage can be obtained if its interconnected, complex nature is exploited. Several challenges arising in cyber-physical networks can be stated as optimization problems. Examples are estimation, decision, learning and control applications. In cyber-physical networks, the goal is to design algorithms, based on the exchange of information among the processors, that take advantage of the aggregated computational power. Distributed Optimization for Smart Cyber-Physical Networks provides a comprehensive overview of the most common approaches used to design distributed optimization algorithms, together with the theoretical analysis of the main schemes in their basic version. It identifies and formalizes classes of problem set-ups that arise in motivating application scenarios. For each set-up, in order to give the main tools for analysis, tailored distributed algorithms in simplified cases are reviewed. Extensions and generalizations of the basic schemes are also discussed at the end of each chapter. Distributed Optimization for Smart Cyber-Physical Networks provides the reader with an accessible overview of the current research and gives important pointers towards new developments. It is an excellent starting point for research and students unfamiliar with the topic.

Book Multilayer Control of Networked Cyber Physical Systems

Download or read book Multilayer Control of Networked Cyber Physical Systems written by Sabato Manfredi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-17 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book faces the interdisciplinary challenge of formulating performance-assessing design approaches for networked cyber-physical systems (NCPSs). Its novel distributed multilayer cooperative control deals simultaneously with communication-network and control performance required for the network and application layers of an NCPS respectively. Practically, it distributes the computational burden among different devices, which act cooperatively to achieve NCPS goals. The approach can be applied to NCPSs based on both wired and wireless technologies and so is suitable for future network infrastructures in which different protocols and technologies coexist. The book reports realistic results from performance evaluation of the new approach, when applied in different operative scenarios. Readers of this book will benefit by: learning a general, technology-independent methodology for the design and implementation of cooperative distributed algorithms for flow control at the network layer of an NCPS that gives algorithm-parameter-tuning guidelines for assessing the desired quality of service performance; learning a general methodology for the design and implementation of consensus-based algorithms at the application layer that allows monitoring and control of distributed physical systems and gives algorithm-parameter-tuning guidelines for assessing the desired control system performance; understanding the main network simulators needed to validate the effectiveness of the proposed multilayer control approach in different realistic network operation scenarios; and practising with a cooperative multilayer control project that assesses acceptable NCPS performance in networked monitoring and robot systems, autonomous and queuing networks, and other critical human relief applications. Researchers, graduate students and practitioners working in automation, engineering, sensor networks, mobile robotics and computer networks will find this book instructive. It will also be helpful to network administrators and technicians implementing application-layer and network-layer solutions or installing, configuring or troubleshooting network and control system components of NCPSs.

Book Convergence Rate of Distributed Averaging Dynamics and Optimization in Networks

Download or read book Convergence Rate of Distributed Averaging Dynamics and Optimization in Networks written by Angelia Nedić and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent advances in wired and wireless technology lead to the emergence of large-scale networks such as Internet, wireless mobile ad-hoc networks, swarm robotics, smart-grid, and smart-sensor networks. The advances gave rise to new applications in networks including decentralized resource allocation in multi-agent systems, decentralized control of multi-agent systems, collaborative decision making, decentralized learning and estimation, and decentralized in-network signal processing. The advances also gave birth to new large cyber-physical systems such as sensor and social networks. These network systems are typically spatially distributed over a large area and may consists of hundreds of agents in smart-sensor networks to millions of agents in social networks. As such, they do not possess a central coordinator or a central point for access to the complete system information. This lack of central entity makes the traditional (centralized) optimization and control techniques inapplicable, thus necessitating the development of new distributed computational models and algorithms to support efficient operations over such networks. This tutorial provides an overview of the convergence rate of distributed algorithms for coordination and its relevance to optimization in a system of autonomous agents embedded in a communication network, where each agent is aware of (and can communicate with) its local neighbors only. The focus is on distributed averaging dynamics for consensus problems and its role in consensus-based gradient methods for convex optimization problems, where the network objective function is separable across the constituent agents.

Book Cyber Physical Systems  Decision Making Mechanisms and Applications

Download or read book Cyber Physical Systems Decision Making Mechanisms and Applications written by Kostas Siozios and published by River Publishers. This book was released on 2017-11-11 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As systems continue to evolve they rely less on human decision-making and more on computational intelligence. This trend in conjunction with the available technologies for providing advanced sensing, measurement, process control, and communication lead towards the new field of the CyberPhysical System (CPS). CyberPhysical systems are expected to play a major role in the design and development of future engineering platforms with new capabilities that far exceed today's levels of autonomy, functionality and usability. Although these systems exhibit remarkable characteristics, their design and implementation is a challenging issue, as numerous (heterogeneous) components and services have to be appropriately modeled and simulated together. The problem of designing efficient CPS becomes far more challenging in case the target system has to meet also real-time constraints. CyberPhysical Systems: Decision Making Mechanisms and Applications describes essential theory, recent research and large-scale user cases that addresses urgent challenges in CPS architectures. In particular, it includes chapters on: Decision making for large scale CPSModeling of CPS with emphasis at the control mechanismsHardware/software implementation of the control mechanismsFault-tolerant and reliability issues for the control mechanismsCyberPhysical user-cases that incorporate challenging decision making
