Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Switched systems are a special class of hybrid systems that consist of an indexed family of subsystems described by continuous or discrete-time dynamics and a rule orchestrating switching among subsystems. Due to their powerful modeling capability, switched systems have been used to model practical systems/plants/processes in various fields, such as telerobotic systems, the aerospace industry, and quarter car suspension. Over the last decade, considerable research efforts have been dedicated to modeling, stability analysis, and control synthesis for switched systems. However, there are still a number of open problems, in both theory and practice, which need to be explored in order to adequately address ongoing concerns from the perspectives of researchers and engineers.
The objective of this Special Issue is to provide an overview of recent advancements and developments in this emerging research area. Forward-looking approaches should be presented in terms of modeling, stability analysis, and control synthesis for switched systems, especially in complex and switched systems, hybrid systems, Markovian models, event-triggered control, adaptive control, filtering, fault detection, and tolerant control. Furthermore, this Special Issue welcomes reserach regarding alternative frameworks to deal with modeling issues and new challenges in practical applications, including manufacturing, robotic, and networked control systems. The submitted papers are expected to include original ideas and potential contributions for theory and practice.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Automation is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1000 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
