Networked control systems (NCS) consist of sensors, actuators and
controllers the operations of which may be distributed over
geographically disparate locations and co-ordinated by the exchange
of information passed over a communication network. The
communication network may be physically wired or not. The
widespread applications of the Internet have been a major driving
force for research and development of NCS. NCS have advantages in
terms of cost reduction, system diagnosis and flexibility,
minimizing wiring and making the addition and replacement of
individual elements relatively simple; efficient data sharing makes
taking globally intelligent control decisions easier with an NCS.
The applications of NCS are very wide, from the large scale of
factory automation and plant monitoring to the smaller but
complicated networks of computers in modern cars, places and
autonomous robots.
Networked Control Systems presents the most recent results in
stability and robustness analysis as well as new developments
related to networked fuzzy and optimal control. Many of the
chapters contain details of case-studies, experimental, simulation
and/or other application-related work showing how the theories put
forward can be implemented in real systems.
The state-of-the art research reported in this volume by an
international team of contributors will make Networked Control
Systems an essential reference for researchers and postgraduate
students in control, electrical, computer and mechanical
engineering and computer science.
