This paper proposes a model predictive controller for discrete-time linear systems with additive, possibly unbounded, stochastic disturbances and subject to chance constraints. By computing a polytopic probabilistic positively invariant set…
This paper proposes a distributed event-triggered control method that not only guarantees consensus of multi-agent systems but also satisfies a given LQ performance constraint. Taking the standard distributed control scheme with all-time…
This paper introduces a novel concept for addressing non-convexity in the cost functions of distributed economic model predictive control (DEMPC) systems. Specifically, the proposed algorithm enables agents to self-organize into a hierarchy…
It is always a challenging task to service sudden events in non-convex and uncertain environments, and multi-agent coverage control provides a powerful theoretical framework to investigate the deployment problem of mobile robotic networks…
In distributed model predictive control (DMPC), where a centralized optimization problem is solved in distributed fashion using dual decomposition, it is important to keep the number of iterations in the solution algorithm, i.e. the amount…
This paper addresses the problem of robust control of a linear discrete-time system subject to bounded disturbances and to measurement and control budget constraints. Using Q-parameterization and a polytope containment method, we prove that…
This paper provides observer-based sampled-data and event-triggered boundary control strategies for a class of reaction-diffusion PDEs with collocated sensing and Robin actuation. Infinite-dimensional backstepping design is used as the…
Building consistent distributed systems has largely depended on complex coordination strategies that are not only tricky to implement, but also take a toll on performance as they require nodes to wait for coordination messages. In this…
This study addresses the intricate challenge of decentralized output-feedback control for stochastic non-triangular nonlinear interconnected systems with unknown time-varying sensor sensitivity in a dynamic event-triggered context. The…
This work introduces a general formulation of the reconfiguration problem for untimed discrete-event systems (DES), which can be treated directly by supervisory control theory (SCT). To model the reconfiguration requirements we introduce…
The coordination of autonomous agents is a critical issue for decentralized communication networks. Instead of transmitting information, the agents interact in a coordinated manner in order to optimize a general objective function. A target…
This paper studies an optimal ON-OFF control problem for a class of discrete event systems with real-time constraints. Our goal is to minimize the overall costs, including the operating cost and the wake-up cost, while still guaranteeing…
In cooperative multi-agent robotic systems, coordination is necessary in order to complete a given task. Important examples include search and rescue, operations in hazardous environments, and environmental monitoring. Coordination, in…
In this paper we study multi-agent discrete-event systems where the agents can be divided into several groups, and within each group the agents have similar or identical state transition structures. We employ a relabeling map to generate a…
This paper proposes a discrete-time event-triggered extremum seeking control scheme for real-time optimization of nonlinear systems. Unlike conventional discrete-time implementations relying on periodic updates, the proposed approach…
In this paper, we solve the complete coordination problem of robotic fiber positioners using supervisory control theory. In particular, we model positioners and their behavioral specifications as discrete-event systems by the discretization…
This paper addresses problems on the structural design of control systems taking explicitly into consideration the possible application to large-scale systems. We provide an efficient and unified framework to solve the following major…
A general model of decentralized stochastic control called partial history sharing information structure is presented. In this model, at each step the controllers share part of their observation and control history with each other. This…
We examine an error-correcting coding framework in which each coded symbol is constrained to be a function of a fixed subset of the message symbols. With an eye toward distributed storage applications, we seek to design systematic codes…
This paper proposes a novel method for designing finite-horizon discrete-valued switching signals in linear switched systems based on discreteness-promoting regularization. The inherent combinatorial optimization problem is reformulated as…
