Large-Scale Systems and Learning

We improve efficiency and reduce costs. What do traffic networks, wind farms, Facebook and economic markets have in common? They are all large-scale networked systems, which can be analyzed and optimized using automatic control techniques. By developing scalable methods for control and optimization, researchers at the Department of Automatic Control are contributing to solving one of the greatest

Autonomous Real-Time Systems

We combine scientific expertise with industrial competence. Considering Ericsson’s forecasy (Ericsson's website) that 47 billion devices will be connected to the Internet in 2030, 22 billion being IoT (Internet of Things (Wikipedia) devices, and the emergence of the Industrial IoT (Wikipedia) and Industry 4.0 (Wikipedia)/5.0, researchers in Autonomous Real-Time Systems will be kept very busy.

What is Automatic Control?

Automatic Control is sometimes referred to as ‘the hidden technology’, as it is all around us without us even realising it. Automatic Control is about ensuring that processes automatically behave in the desired manner. The subject is probably best explained through a number of examples.Cruise control for cars and autopilots for aeroplanes and ships are examples of control engineering. Speeds and p

Female Influencers in Automatic Control

The aim of this initiative is to gather a collection of portraits of women who has or will influence the field of Automatic Control. The project has two parts: Historical female influencersFemales that worked in control engineering over the decades and left their mark, paved the way for today's female professionals and constitute important role-models for young female students. The purpose is to d

Future female influencers in automatic control

The aim of this initiative is to look ahead and investigate the hopes, wishes, ideas and aspirations of young female students and professionals. For this purpose, a questionnaire to capture the voices of future female control engineers, has been designed. Assuming that the field of automatic control will be as relevant in the future as it is today (or even more!), it is of intetest to know how you
