Application to control of networked queue systems

In this chapter we present examples of application of the consensus-based algorithms introduced in Chap. 2 to deal with different network layer control system requirements of the NCPS. Specifically, we face the challenging issues of load balancing and rate control for: (i) wired networks (e.g., supporting end-to-end teleoperations of NCPSs); (ii) wireless networks (e.g., supporting NCPS hop-by-hop functionalities in industrial monitoring and control), and (iii) Content delivery networks (e.g., supporting service delivery of autonomous systems).
