In many "smart city" applications, congestion arises in part due to the nature of signals received by individuals from a central authority. In the model of Marecek et al. [arXiv:1406.7639, Int. J. Control 88(10), 2015], each agent uses one…
We consider the problem of making a set of states invariant for a network of controlled systems. We assume that the subsystems, initially uncoupled, must be interconnected through controllers to be designed with a constraint on the data…
