  2. Hierarchical control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_control_system

    A hierarchical control system (HCS) is a form of control system in which a set of devices and governing software is arranged in a hierarchical tree. When the links in the tree are implemented by a computer network , then that hierarchical control system is also a form of networked control system .

    A network on a chip or network-on-chip (NoC / ˌ ɛ n ˌ oʊ ˈ s iː / en-oh-SEE or / n ɒ k / knock) [nb 1] is a network-based communications subsystem on an integrated circuit ("microchip"), most typically between modules in a system on a chip .

  4. Networked control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Networked_control_system

    A networked control system (NCS) is a control system wherein the control loops are closed through a communication network.The defining feature of an NCS is that control and feedback signals are exchanged among the system's components in the form of information packages through a network.

  5. System of systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_systems

    System of systems is a collection of task-oriented or dedicated systems that pool their resources and capabilities together to create a new, more complex system which offers more functionality and performance than simply the sum of the constituent systems. Currently, systems of systems is a critical research discipline for which frames of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_theory

    The definition of a closed loop control system according to the British Standards Institution is "a control system possessing monitoring feedback, the deviation signal formed as a result of this feedback being used to control the action of a final control element in such a way as to tend to reduce the deviation to zero." [12]

    Control systems play a critical role in space flight.. Control engineering, also known as control systems engineering and, in some European countries, automation engineering, is an engineering discipline that deals with control systems, applying control theory to design equipment and systems with desired behaviors in control environments.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_science

    Network science is an academic field which studies complex networks such as telecommunication networks, computer networks, biological networks, cognitive and semantic networks, and social networks, considering distinct elements or actors represented by nodes (or vertices) and the connections between the elements or actors as links (or edges).
