Distributed Wardrop Load Balancing in Multi-MTU SCADA Systems

This paper presents a distributed strategy for load balancing in a multi-MTU SCADA system, whose automatic control layer is such that its MTU Plane is modeled as a networked dynamical system. The proposed control law, under which the considered system is proven to converge to a Wardrop equilibrium, is also used for the purpose of equilibrium recovery in load distribution among MTUs after the occurrence of a possible MTU failure event induced by a cyber-physical attack (e.g., a Denial of Service attack).

Distributed infinite-horizon optimal control of continuous-time linear systems over network

This article deals with the distributed infinite-horizon
linear-quadratic-Gaussian optimal control problem for continuous-time systems
over networks. In particular, the feedback controller is composed of local
control stations, which receive some measurement data from the plant process
and regulates a portion of the input signal. We provide a solution when the
nodes have information on the structural data of the whole network but takes
local actions, and also when only local information on the network are available
