This paper is concerned with the design of optimal control for finite-dimensional control-affine nonlinear dynamical systems. We introduce an optimal control problem that specifically optimizes nonlinear observability in addition to…

We consider the problem of resource allocation and control of multihop networks in which multiple source-destination pairs communicate confidential messages, to be kept confidential from the intermediate nodes. We pose the problem as that…

In factory automation, heterogeneous manufacturing processes need to be coordinated over wireless networks to achieve safety and efficiency. These wireless networks, however, are inherently unreliable due to shadow fading induced by the…

Increased connectivity and remote reprogrammability/reconfigurability features of embedded devices in current-day power systems (including interconnections between information technology -- IT -- and operational technology -- OT --…

This paper develops a controller synthesis algorithm for distributed LQG control problems under output feedback. We consider a system consisting of three interconnected linear subsystems with a delayed information sharing structure. While…

This paper investigates optimal scheduling for a cognitive multi-hop underwater acoustic network with a primary user interference constraint. The network consists of primary and secondary users, with multi-hop transmission adopted for both…

The emerging edge-hub-cloud paradigm has enabled the development of innovative latency-critical cyber-physical applications in the edge-cloud continuum. However, this paradigm poses multiple challenges due to the heterogeneity of the…

This paper addresses the problem of designing recommendation systems for social networks and e-commerce platforms from a control-theoretic perspective. We treat the design of recommendation systems as a state-feedback infinite-horizon…

This paper studies an attacker against a cyber-physical system (CPS) whose goal is to move the state of a CPS to a target state while ensuring that his or her probability of being detected does not exceed a given bound. The attacker's…

In this work, we aim to obtain the optimal tradeoff between the average delay and the average power consumption in a communication system. In our system, the arrivals occur at each timeslot according to a Bernoulli arrival process and are…

This paper presents a new counter-measure to mitigate denial-of-service cyber-attacks in linear time-invariant (LTI) systems. We first design a sparse linear quadratic regulator (LQR) optimal controller for a given LTI plant and evaluate…

This letter deals with the problem of quantifying resiliency of Networked Control Systems (NCSs) to Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks and variable network delays. Internal exponential stability and $\mathcal{L}_2$ external stability are…

We study the optimal provision of information for two natural performance measures of queuing systems: throughput and makespan. A set of parallel links is equipped with deterministic capacities and stochastic travel times where the latter…

This paper proposes a novel approach to improve the performance of distributed nonlinear control systems while preserving stability by leveraging Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). We build upon the Neural System Level Synthesis (Neur-SLS)…

We study transmission delay minimization of a wireless powered communication (WPC) system in a point-to-point scenario with one hybrid access point (HAP) and one WPC node. In this type of communications, the HAP sends energy to the node at…

Vehicle platooning using connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) has attracted considerable attention. In this paper, we address the problem of optimal coordination of CAV platoons at a highway on-ramp merging. We present a single-level…

This work studies the role of inter-user device-to-device (D2D) cooperation for improving physical-layer secret communication in multi-user downlink systems. It is assumed that there are out-of-band D2D channels, on each of which a selected…

We consider a MIMO fading broadcast channel where the fading channel coefficients are constant over time-frequency blocks that span a coherent time $\times$ a coherence bandwidth. In closed-loop systems, channel state information at…

In this paper, we study joint queue-aware and channel-aware scheduling of arbitrarily bursty traffic over multi-state time-varying channels, where the bursty packet arrival in the network layer, the backlogged queue in the data link layer,…

Communication-aware control is essential to reduce costs and complexity in large-scale networks. However, it is challenging to simultaneously determine a sparse communication topology and achieve high performance and robustness. This work…
