CPS Workshop (CDC18)

The main goal of the workshop is to highlight recent advances and developments in the field of cyber-physical systems (CPS) with a specific focus on the need of accounting for computation constraints in algorithm design, also dictated by the communication structure of the system. To this purpose, we will bring together outstanding researchers from leading institutions and industries worldwide. 
The target audience comprises graduate level control theorists, computer scientists and engineers, as well as researchers with a strong interest in CPS verification and control, either from a theoretical or an application perspective. In particular, the main topics being covered are:

 

  • CPS models that are computation aware;
  • Performance metrics under computation limitations;
  • Algorithm design for CPSs operating in an uncertain dynamic environment;
  • Communication constrained networked control systems.

The workshop will take place from 9:00 AM till 5:00 PM in the Splash 11 room, Fontainbleau Hotel, Miami Beach, on December 16, 2018.

Invited Speakers:


  • Murat Arcak, University of California at Berkeley, USA

  • Massimo Franceschetti, University of California at San Diego, USA

  • Karl H. Johansson, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden

  • George J. Pappas, University of Pennsylvania, USA 

  • Alessandro Pinto, United Technologies Research Center, USA
