Magdeburg Lectures on Optimization and Control: Optimization based planning and feedback control: an on-going journey

Abstract

Optimization based strategies for planning and feedback control represent a general framework of numerical methods in which a (often deterministic) model of the system under consideration and its environment are exploited to achieve high-level goals (e.g., minimization of energy consumption, emission of pollutants, maximization of throughput, etc.) as well as more specific tasks (e.g. product quality control, robotic manipulation), while respecting a number of constraints arising from physical, safety or performance limits.

In this seminar, I review and analyze the main concepts, successes and ongoing challenges of optimization based methods, with a particular emphasis on how uncertainties can be dealt with effectively and efficiently using disturbance estimation techniques. During the seminar, I present several examples ranging from reaction processes to robotic systems.
