Session Focus
Many industrial infrastructure systems can be described by models of evolving complex networks, where nodes represent the elements of the systems and links mimic the interactions among them. Prototypical examples including public transportation network, World Wide Web, smart grids and the multi-robot systems. The past few years have witnessed a strong upsurge of the study of complex networks in various fields, ranging from physics to mathematics and also to computer science and engineering. Key issues within the field of complex industrial networks include distributed resilience control, distributed optimization, privacy protection, and coordination. This special session focuses on theoretical and technological advances in distributed coordination, optimization and security control of complex networks, along with its various industrial applications.
