Introduction

This book is inspired by the development of distributed model predictive control of networked systems to save computation and communication sources.

Key Contributions

The significant new contribution is to show how to design efficient DMPCs that can be coordinated asynchronously with the increasing effectiveness of the event-triggering mechanism and how to improve the event-triggered DMPC for different requirements, including improvement of control performance and extension to interconnected networked systems.

Intended Audience

The book is likely to be of interest to persons engaged in researching control theory in academic institutes, persons involved in developing control systems in R&D institutes or companies, control engineers implementing control algorithms, and people interested in distributed MPC.
