Workshop "Methods and Algorithms for the Control of Complex Systems"
in honor of Sophie Tarbouriech
27-29 August 2024, Banyuls, France
About the workshop
This workshop aims to discuss recent control methods and algorithms for analyzing the stability or guaranteeing the performance of complex dynamical systems. The presented works will cover a wide class of systems (such as non-linear, hybrid or infinite-dimensional systems). Several classes of control strategies will also be addressed, such as reset control, with or without saturation, or those based on events or learning and artificial intelligence tools. Analysis and design objectives include, among others, optimal sensor or actuator placement, robustness of looped systems, anti-windup loops, multi-objective control synthesis, and convex optimization for stability. Applications will include aeronautics and space, control of physical systems with isolated nonlinearities, and epidemiological models. Speakers will be a balanced group of European and non-European researchers, most of them collaborators (and friends) of Sophie Tarbouriech, researcher at LAAS-CNRS in Toulouse (France). This conference is organized in her honor, and will therefore present a comprehensive overview of recent trends on control of complex systems.
