Abstract

A research program is formulated for control of distributed and of multilevel systems (including hierarchical systems). Successively, the research topics of integration, modeling, multilevel control, coordination control, distributed control with direct communication between controllers, distributed control without communication, communication and control, informatics, and economics are discussed. In addition, the usefulness of the research areas of system theory, complexity, cognition, and algebra is also mentioned.
