This Proceedings Volume contains 32 articles on various interesting areas of
present-day functional analysis and its applications: Banach spaces and
their geometry, operator ideals, Banach and operator algebras, operator and
spectral theory, Frechet spaces and algebras, function and sequence spaces.
The authors have taken much care with their articles and many papers present
important results and methods in active fields of research. Several survey
type articles (at the beginning and the end of the book) will be very useful
for mathematicians who want to learn "what is going on" in some particular
field of research.

The rapid evolution of computer science, communication, and information technology has enabled the application of control techniques to systems beyond the possibilities of control theory just a decade ago. Critical infrastructures such as electricity, water, trafficand intermodal transport networks are now in the scope of control engineers. The sheer size of such large-scale systems requires the adoption of advanced distributed control approaches. Distributed model predictive control (MPC) is one of the promising control methodologies for control of such systems.

This book provides a state-of-the-art overview of distributed MPC approaches, while at the same time making clear directions of research that deserve more attention. The core and rationale of 35 approaches are carefully explained. Moreover, detailed step-by-step algorithmic descriptions of each approach are provided. These features make the book a comprehensive guide both for those seeking an introduction to distributed MPC as well as for those who want to gain a deeper insight in the wide range of distributed MPC techniques available.
