A networked control system (NCS) is a single system | |
composed of multiple discrete agents, and is often | |
modeled as a graph of nodes (agents) and connecting edges | |
(communications links). NCS technology is increasingly | |
important for control of autonomous vehicles (UxVs). | |
Proper placement of the NCS elements is vital to mission | |
effectiveness, but finding optimal NCS configurations is | |
almost always computationally prohibitive. In this | |
thesis, we explore using submodularity to solve this | |
problem. This approach gives near-optimality guarantees | |
while reducing the complexity of the problem, allowing | |
solutions to be found in near real-time. A simple, novel | |
distributed submodular approach to NCS control was | |
developed, with simulation and analysis provided for an | |
expeditionary warfare scenario. | |
