Distributed Model Predictive Control with Industrial Applications
About this ebook
This book explores the most recent and modern approaches to the control of distributed systems on the framework of model predictive control while focusing on exploiting and controlling physical processes by means of data generated within the system and their interaction with the environments.
The book begins with a general introduction of the subject material and subsequent chapters focus on main topics, while highlighting most recent contributions in the subject and open areas and research questions left unanswered. Algorithms related to the subject are explained concisely with some typical examples from literature to reinforce understanding.
- Provides modern, concise, and precise explanations of theoretical concepts with industrial case studies
- Highlights the most recent contributions in the area of distributed model predictive controllers
- Explains algorithms related to the subject typical examples from literature to reinforce understanding
