  2. 1. On performance limitations of large-scale networks with distributed feedback control

    Author : Emma Tegling; Henrik Sandberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Networked control systems; microgrids; platooning; vehicular formation; multi-agent systems; H2 norms; fundamental limitations; consensus; Distributed control; large-scale networks; oscillator networks; power networks; power system dynamics; system performance; spatially invariant systems; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : We address the question of performance of large-scale networks with distributed feedback control. We consider networked dynamical systems with single and double integrator dynamics, subject to distributed disturbances. We focus on two types of problems. First, we consider problems modeled over regular lattice structures. READ MORE

  4. 2. Inducing large-scale diffusion of innovation : An integrated actor- and system-level approach

    Author : Ingrid Mignon; Anna Bergek; Johanna Nählinder; Volker Hoffmann; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Innovation; large-scale diffusion; adopters; actor; system; drivers; challenges; motives; strategies; policies; renewable electricity; technology; intermediaries;

    Abstract : In order for the innovation process to be successful, not only do innovations need to be developed and reached the market, but, once they are available for users, they have to spread on a large scale. In the innovation literature, a complete explanation is lacking of why some innovations reach a phase of large-scale diffusion faster than others, including both actor- and system-level components.

  5. 3. Accelerating Convergence of Large-scale Optimization Algorithms

    Author : Euhanna Ghadimi; Mikael Johansson; Angelia Nedich; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Convex optimization; Large-scale systems; First-order methods; Convergence analysis; ADMM; Optimization algorithms; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik; Matematik; Mathematics;

    Abstract : Several recent engineering applications in multi-agent systems, communication networks, and machine learning deal with decision problems that can be formulated as optimization problems. For many of these problems, new constraints limit the usefulness of traditional optimization algorithms. READ MORE

  6. 4. Short-Term Traffic Prediction in Large-Scale Urban Networks

    Author : Matej Cebecauer; Erik Jenelius; Wilco Burghout; Balázs Kulcsár; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; travel time prediction; short-term travel time prediction; traffic prediction; clustering; partitioning; spatio-temporal partitioning; large-scale prediction; PPCA; 3D speed map; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

    Abstract : City-wide travel time prediction in real-time is an important enabler for efficient use of the road network. It can be used in traveler information to enable more efficient routing of individual vehicles as well as decision support for traffic management applications such as directed information campaigns or incident management.

  7. 5. On H-infinity Control and Large-Scale Systems

    Author : Carolina Bergeling; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; H-infinity Control; Decentralized Control; Large-Scale Systems; Infinite-Dimensional Systems;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a class of linear time-invariant systems is identified for which a particular type of H-infinity optimal control problem can be solved explicitly. It follows that the synthesized controller can be given on a simple explicit form. READ MORE
