Comprehension of complex systems comes from an understanding of not only the behavior of constituent elements but how they act together to form the behavior of the whole. However, given the multidisciplinary nature of complex systems, the scattering of information across different areas creates a chaotic situation for those trying to understand pos
There is an emerging interest in the area of modeling and control of complex systems for applications in many engineering and non-engineering fields such as biology, transportation, robotics, information technology, and communications. This text provides a pioneering, single-source compilation of material from internationally renowned experts with different approaches to the applications of modeling and control of complex systems. Sections cover complex systems, biological systems, communication networks, sensor networks and automation, autonomous vehicles and robotics, transportation systems and structures, and others. The authors highlight the most important areas of research, the latest advances, and possible future directions.
