Objectives

The main objective of this research is to achieve scientific progresses leading to technological innovations in the following applicative sectors:

1) sporadic and decentralized control of large industrial processes with delocalized outputs,

2) diagnostic monitoring of spatially distributed systems where communications are achieved through existing infrastructures, not always available.

These results will be applied in the many domains mentioned in Section 8, such as smart grids and smart cities or modern production facilities, where goods and services are based on a broad and integrated use of communication systems, which are different and not always available.

In detail, the project aims to develop methodologies to ensure the proper functioning and reliability of complex supervision and control architectures, taking into account factors such as limited resources, the presence of faults and the reduction in energy consumption, occupation of the network bandwidth, computational and structure costs.
