This book offers a comprehensive, easy-to-understand overview of receding-horizon control for nonlinear networks. The book first introduces the state-feedback control problems of nonlinear networked systems and then studies output feedback control problems.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of marine control system design related to underwater robotics applications. In particular, it presents novel optimization-based model predictive control strategies to solve control problems appearing in autonomous underwater vehicle applications. These novel approaches bring unique features, such as constraint handling, prioritization between multiple design objectives, optimal control performance, and robustness against disturbances and uncertainties, into the control system design. They therefore form a more general framework to design marine...
