The problem of designing network-wide traffic signal control strategies for large-scale congested urban road networks is considered. One known and two novel methodologies, all based on the store-and-forward modeling paradigm, are presented and compared. Th ...
A linear quadratic model predictive controller (MPC) can be written as a parametric quadratic optimization problem whose solution is a piecewise affine (PWA) map from the state to the optimal input. While this `explicit solution' can offer several orders o ...
Optimization arises naturally when process performance needs improvement. This is often the case in industry because of competition – the product has to be proposed at the lowest possible cost. From the point of view of control, optimization consists in de ...
The optimiser of a (multi) parametric linear program (pLP) is a piecewise affine function defined over a polyhedral subdivision of the set of feasible states. Once this affine function has been pre-calculated, the optimal solution can be computed for a par ...
La consommation des ressources energetiques est actuellement un enjeu primordial, notamment dans le secteur du batiment, qui represente à lui seul 42 % de l’energie consommee en France. La mixite energetique, renouvelable et fossile, ainsi qu’une meilleure ...
A predictive optimal control system for micro-cogeneration in domestic applications has been developed. This system aims at integrating stochastic inhabitant behavior and meteorological conditions as well as modelling imprecisions, while defining operation ...

The goal of thermal management is to meet maximum operating temperature constraints, while at the same time tracking timevarying performance requirements. Current approaches avoid thermal violations by forcing abrupt operating points changes (e.g. processo ...
A new approach for robust fixed-order H∞ controller design by convex optimization is proposed. Linear time-invariant single-input single-output systems represented by a finite set of complex values in the frequency domain are considered. It is show ...
Parametric programming has received a lot of attention in the control literature in the past few years because model predictive controllers (MPC) can be posed in a parametric framework and hence pro-solved offline, resulting in a significant decrease in on ...
