2. 21. Decentralized Control of Networked Systems : Information Asymmetries and Limitations

   Author : Farhad Farokhi; Karl Henrik Johansson; Jeff S. Shamma; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Networked Control Systems; Decentralized Control; Limited Model Information; Transportation Systems; Sensor Scheduling;

   Abstract : Designing local controllers for networked systems is challenging, because in these systems each local controller can often access only part of the overall information on system parameters and sensor measurements. Traditional control design cannot be easily applied due to the unconventional information patterns, communication network imperfections, and design procedure complexities. READ MORE

4. 22. Internal Control : A Study of the Concept and Themes of Internal Control

   Author : Olof Arwinge; Fredrik Nilsson; Nils-Göran Olve; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Economic Information Systems; Ekonomiska informationssystem;

   Abstract : This thesis studies the accounting and auditing approach to control where the concept of internal control has developed along with the theory and practice of accounting and auditing and its stated objectives. In this context, internal control has traditionally been regarded as a means of ensuring financial reporting quality as well as a way of preventing and detecting fraudulent activity. READ MORE

5. 23. Predictive control for autonomous driving : With experimental evaluation on a heavy-duty construction truck

   Author : Pedro Lima; Bo Wahlberg; Jonas Mårtensson; Alberto Bemporad; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Autonomous vehicles; model predictive control; automatic control; heavy-duty vehicles; mining; trucks; clothoids; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : Autonomous vehicles is a rapidly expanding field, and promise to play an important role in society. In more isolated environments, vehicle automation can bring significant efficiency and production benefits and it eliminates repetitive jobs that can lead to inattention and accidents. READ MORE

6. 24. Aging sensitive battery control

   Author : Malin Andersson; Mikael Johansson; Matteo Corno; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lithium-ion battery; battery control; parameter identification; equivalent circuit model; Doyle-Fuller-Newman model; sensitivity analysis; optimal experiment design; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : The battery is a component with significant impact on both the cost and environmental footprint of a full electric vehicle (EV). Consequently, there is a strong motivation to maximize its degree of utilization. Usage limits are enforced by the battery management system (BMS) to ensure safe operation and limit battery degradation. READ MORE

7. 25. Modelling, analysis and experimentation of a simple feedback scheme for error correction control

   Author : Oscar Flärdh; Karl H. Johansson; Mikael Johansson; Bo Bernhardsson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Network Control; Error Correction; Multiple-Input Describing Function; Extremum Seeking Control; Sensor Network Experiments; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

   Abstract : Data networks are an important part in an increasing number of applications with real-time and reliability requirements. To meet these demands a variety of approaches have been proposed. Forward error correction, which adds redundancy to the communicated data, is one of them. READ MORE
