Systems Theory for Large Scale Systems

Academic advisor: Ulf Jönsson

Sponsor: Swedish Research Council (VR)

The goal of this project is to develop theory and algorithmic tools for rigorous design and analysis of large-scale networks of dynamical systems. The project is motivated by applications that continuously evolve by the addition or removal of components and where the sheer size of the system makes exact analysis and design computationally intractable. Examples of application areas showing these characteristics are communication networks such as the Internet, wireless communication networks, the power grid, and some problems in systems biology multi-vehicle systems.

The project offers a wide range of possible research directions with varying theoretical contents and application domain. Three possible directions are

Some of the possible research directions allow collaboration within the ACCESS Linnaeus centre and in EU projects.
