报告摘要：
Traditional industrial facilities are monitored and controlled through industrial computers called distributed control systems (DCS) and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems, in which time-triggered operations are the norm. Sampled-data control is the paradigm for the analysis and design of such time-triggered systems. This sampled-data control paradigm uses a fundamental assumption that all signals and systems are sampled periodically in time; based on this assumption, sampled-data controllers can be designed, considering inter-sample behavior in continuous time. However, such a periodicity assumption is no longer valid in modern industrial systems for two reasons. First, integrating new communication and computing technologies generates a new class of systems called cyber-physical systems, in which network protocols and real-time computer algorithms evolve by events and are event-triggered. Second, most existing industrial facilities are still operated by human operators through alarm monitoring systems. Could industrial plants be fully automated without the intervention of operators at all? This would require incorporating alarm systems with control systems; but alarm systems are event-triggered, violating the periodicity assumption.
This talk aims at presenting some basics and insights on sampled-data and event-triggered control systems, discussing their relative advantages and disadvantages, and providing the key ideas and mathematical tools used in design, with many illustrative examples.
