Increases in fast and inexpensive computing and communications have enabled a new generation 
information-rich control systems that rely on multi-threaded networked execution, distributed 
optimization, adaptation and learning, and contingency management in increasingly sophisticated 
ways. This set of lectures will provide an introduction to the theory and tools for building such 
systems, focusing on the so-called “networked” control systems in which the components that form 
the system are connected through a communication network.  These lectures were developed as part of 
a [[CDS 270-2, Spring 2006|course at Caltech]] on “Networked  Control Systems”, first offered in Spring 2006, and a [[HYCON-EECI, Spring 2008|2008 EECI course]].  The instructors are also working on a new textbook, [[ncsbook|Networked Sensing, Estimation and Control Systems]], co-authored with Ling Shi and Bruno Sinopoli.
