Start of the project: January 2011 , December 2014
Contract number: 264735-SADCO
Funding institution: European Commission (EU)
The multi-partner initial training network SADCO aims at:
Training young researchers and future scientific leaders in the field of control theory with emphasis on two major themes sensitivity of optimal strategies to changes in the optimal control problem specification, and deterministic controller design;
Advancing the theory and developing new numerical methods; Conveying fundamental scientific contributions within European industrial sectors
COORDINATORS
