Distributed Real-Time Systems

At the end of the course, students will have an understanding of the intersection of communication technology and distributed real-time control in multi-agent systems. Specifically, students will learn: The goals and the techniques for the analysis of consensus and synchronization in multi-agent distributed and networked systems as well as the design of communication structures of networked controllers.

The lecture is given in English.
