HYCON
Highly-complex and networked control systems
The FP7 NoE HYCON2, started in September 2010, is a four-year project coordinated by the CNRS (Françoise Lamnabhi-Lagarrigue). It aims at stimulating and establishing a long-term integration in the strategic field of control of complex, large-scale, and networked dynamical systems. It focuses in particular on the domains of ground and aerospace transportation, electrical power networks, process industries, and biological and medical systems.
HYCON2 aims at stimulating and establishing the long-term integration of the European research community, leading institutions and industry in the strategic field of control of complex, large-scale, and networked dynamical systems. It interconnects scattered groups to create critical mass and complementarity, and provides the necessary visibility and communication with the European industries.
The key objectives of the project are:
- To foster in both ways fundamental studies and applications.
- To develop generic modeling and the design of control methods, under the multiple constraints inherent to embedded systems, based on a model approach (EDP, ODE, continuous, discrete, discrete events systems, hybrid systems).
- To design dynamical reconfiguration of architectures & implementation of languages and scalable algorithms for the control of evolvable, distributed and adaptable systems.
- To master the complexity in terms of temporal and spatial uncertainties such as parameters, delays and disturbances, limited bandwidth in communications, actuation constraints and node availability.
