Increases in fast and inexpensive computing and communications have enabled a new generation
information-rich control systems that rely on multi-threaded networked execution, distributed
optimization, adaptation and learning, and contingency management in increasingly sophisticated
ways. This set of lectures will provide an introduction to the theory and tools for building such
systems, focusing on the so-called “networked” control systems in which the components that form
the system are connected through a communication network. These lectures were developed as part of
a course at Caltech on “Networked Control Systems”, first offered in Spring 2006.
