This course offers an introduction to control systems using communication networks for interfacing sensors, actuators, controllers, and processes. Challenges due to network non-idealities and opportunities offered by communication will be analyzed. ...
Information is processed in physical devices. In the quantum regime the concept of classical bit is replaced by the quantum bit. We introduce quantum principles, and then quantum communications, key distribution, quantum entropy, and spin dynamics. No prio ...
The classical distinction between polynomial time solvable and NP-hard problems is often too coarse. This course covers techniques for proving more fine-grained lower and upper bounds on complexity of computational problems. ...
