Track 4. Networked Control Systems and Cyber-Physical Systems
Chair:
Prof. Yingming Yi, Xi'an University of Technology, China 弋英民教授（西安理工大学）
Co-Chair: Assoc. Prof. Xianghong Xue, Xi'an University of Technology, China 薛向宏副教授（西安理工大学）
As modern engineering systems become increasingly interconnected and intelligent, Networked Control Systems and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are emerging as the backbone of next-generation infrastructure. This track focuses on the seamless integration of control, communication, and computation, enabling real-time coordination across distributed and heterogeneous systems. By bridging physical processes with digital intelligence, it addresses critical challenges such as scalability, reliability, latency, and security in complex networked environments. The goal is to highlight innovative methodologies and applications that enhance system-level performance, resilience, and adaptability in domains ranging from industrial automation to smart cities.
Potential topics of interest include but are not limited to:
● Networked and Distributed Control Systems
● Multi-agent Systems and Cooperative Control
● Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and Industrial CPS
● Edge/Cloud-based Control and IoT Systems
● Communication-constrained and Data-driven Control
● Fault Diagnosis, Resilient and Secure Control
● Digital Twins and Intelligent Infrastructure
