Abstract：
A cyber-physical system integrates computing, communication and storage capabilities within entities in the physical world. Traditionally, control designers and real-time computer and telecommunication experts work separately. The first conceive the control algorithms based on the required performance and the process knowledge, regardless their subsequent implementation, whereas the computer experts deal with the control code without paying much attention to the impact of the code execution in the control performance and the communication experts provide the link, assuming data accessibility and validity. But they are interlaced and the full design should be jointly treated, mainly if the control tasks share resources with some other activities and these resources are limited. In this talk, the real-time control design and implementation will be reviewed, mainly from the control perspective.
Special attention is devoted to new and widespread control scenarios where the controller is not anymore implemented in a full dedicated computer without resources constraints, but sharing and competing for computing, storage and communication facilities with several other tasks. Embedded control systems, networked control systems and event-based control systems challenge the design of the control and its implementation where architectural issues play a relevant role in the controlled system performance. Some key concepts interacting with both, the control performance and the control implementation, such as the control effort or the control kernel are emphasized and some general directions in the co-design are summarized.

Pedro Albertos, past president of IFAC (the International Federation of Automatic Control) in 1999-2002, IFAC Fellow, IFAC Advisor and Senior Member of IEEE, is a world recognized expert in real-time control, leading several projects in the field.
Full Professor since 1975, he is currently at Systems Engineering and Control Dept. UPV, Spain. He is Doctor Honoris-Causa from Oulu University (Finland) and Bucharest Polytechnic (Rumania). Invited Professor in more than 20 Universities, he delivered seminars in more than 30 universities and research centers. Authored over 300 papers, book chapters and congress communications, co-editor of 7 books and co-author of Multivariable Control Systems”(Springer 2004) and Feedback and Control for Everyone (Springer 2010), he is also associated editor of Control Engineering Practice and Editor in Chief of the Spanish journal RIAI. His research interest includes multivariable control and non-conventional sampling control systems, with focus on time delays and multirate sampling patterns.
