Introduction of the Research Group
Introduction of the Research Group
Systems of communicating components are crucial in a broad range of applications including space exploration, mobile sensor networks, teleoperated surgical robots, control of teams of vehicles, and integrated building systems. Interconnections are not only manifested by a communication channel, but by the inherent coupling of the states in the equations describing the system. The analysis of communicating dynamic components is timely and important.
