ECE Seminar - Hierarchically Decentralized Control for Networked Dynamical Systems with Global and Local Objectives
4:00pm - 5:00pm
Rm 5506 (Lift 25/26), Academic Complex, HKUST

Abstract:


There are many dynamical systems that can be regarded as hierarchical networked dynamical systems in a variety of fields related to smart cities. One of the ideas to treat those systems properly is "Glocal (Global/Local) Control," which means that the global purpose is achieved by only local actions of measurement and control. The key for realization of glocal control is hierarchical networked dynamical systems with multiple resolutions in time and space depending on the layer, and one of the main issues is to compromise the two different objectives, one for global and the other for local.  After the explanation of control perspective on Internet of Things (IoT), a unified framework and its fundamental control theory for glocal control, we focus on how to design hierarchically decentralized control with global/local objectives by aggregation.  Through the talk we show the effectiveness of the theoretical results for applications to electric vehicle control and power grids towards smart cities.
