We present a suite of algorithms and tools for model-predictive control of sensor/actuator systems with embedded microcontroller units (MCU). These MCUs can be colocated with sensors and actuators, ...

In this chapter, I will present a few useful “cookbook” applications for real-time control circuits designed to perform some specific low-level task and interface with a master controller for ...

Industry 4.0 is the next generation of the manufacturing industry. A factory composed of smart devices is referred to as a Smart Factory. This concept is composed of many different physical and ...

Sensors are an indispensable tool to inform utility managers of the state of the electricity grid and the occurrence of ...

The use of highly precise and continuously modulating actuators – in power stations for example – increases the efficiency of plants and reduces power consumption. The capacity of current new-build ...
