Scope: This summer school provides an introduction to optimal and model predictive control (MPC) methods, with a focus on their application in embedded systems such as micro-controllers, embedded computing devices, and industrial PCs. Lectures will cover essential background in numerical optimization, introduce optimal and model predictive control, and explore state-of-the-art techniques for implementing these methods on embedded devices for real-time use. Participants should have a solid understanding of fundamental control concepts (e.g., state-space modeling, controllability, observability, and stability). Prior knowledge of optimal and predictive control or embedded programming is not required but welcome. The school will begin on Monday morning and conclude on Friday after lunch. Approximately half of the 5-day school will be dedicated to supervised and guided exercises that focus on the practical implementation of MPC on microcontrollers and embedded devices.
