Description:
Modelling, identification, control, and optimization of dynamical
systems, with an emphasis on the computational aspects of such problems
are the main themes of the network. The research activities of the
network are organized along the following topics: numerical linear
algebra and numerical solution of large scale problems, control and
optimization, modelling and dynamics of networks, modelling and
complexity of discrete dynamics, linear and nonlinear system
identification, modelling and control in (bio-) chemical reactions and
in biomedical systems.
This IAP network is made up of seven teams from five different
universities. The strength of the network resides in the complementary
expertise available in modelling and control of nonlinear systems (UCL,
RUG, ULg), system identification (UCL, KUL, VUB), computation and
optimization (UCL, KUL) and biochemical and biomedical applications
(UCL, KUL).
Besides the production of high quality research, this network has
always put a heavy emphasis on the training of the Belgian PhD students
in systems and control and their co-supervision by academics from
different teams. In 1991, it set up the Graduate School in Systems and
Control, which has been operating ever since.
Whereas the fundamental research pursued by the network addresses
problems of a generic nature, the areas of application are extremely
broad and diverse. They include modelling and control of traffic flows
in networks, control of robots, modelling and optimization of chemical
and biochemical reactors, predictive microbiology, bio-informatics,
biomedical data processing, modelling in neuroscience.
