Plenary
Lecture
“The role of theory in control practice”
Manfred Morari
ETH Zurich, Switzerland
ABSTRACT:
Twenty years ago I
delivered a plenary lecture with the same title at the ACC in Boston. I will go back and reflect on the
successes and failures, on what we have learned and which problems remain open.
The focus will be on robust and constrained control and the real time
implementation of control algorithms. I will comment on the progress we have
made on the control of hybrid systems and how our vastly more powerful
computational resources have affected the design tools we have at our disposal.
Throughout the lecture, industrial examples will illustrate the arguments.
