10B00 Optimization Application in Feedback Control
OverviewThis session focuses on results in the area of optimization used in feedback control. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to applications of optimization in the computation of the controller command signal or in the computation of the feedback signal. Applications to novel controller designs, industrial processes, or nontraditional processes are of particular interest.
