hdmpc-ind-ws Industry Workshop on Hierarchical and Distributed
Model Predictive Control (HD-MPC)
Leuven, 24 June 2011
The aim of this one day workshop is to present methods and applications of hierarchical and distributed Model Predictive Control (MPC) in a tutorial way. It starts with a short review of MPC and will then focus on how MPC can be applied to large scale control problems. The workshop presenters from academia and industry cooperate in a larger European Project, HD-MPC, and will focus on applications and software developed within this project.
The workshop aims for an industrial audience with a limited number of 25 participants and the program is designed such as to provide room for strong interactivity.
