Short description
Presenting the latest research into this new branch of control engineering, Cooperative Control presents the results of a "MURI" (Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative) projects on the topic. The material is organized under four broad themes, or dimensions of cooperative control: Distributed control and computation; adversarial interactions; uncertain evolution; and complexity management.
