Overview of Networks and Control

This paper presents an overview of networks and control in two directions: control of communication networks (CCN) which is studied to improve QoS of networks using control techniques; and networked control systems (NCS) which enhance the control systems capability using the network communications. In the CCN, the focus is on the wireless networks while in the NCS the focus is on the wired networks.
