摘要:Complex systems are omnipresent and play a vital role in in our every-day lives. Adverse behavior of such systems has generated considerable interest in being able to control complex systems modeled as networks. Here, we propose a topology-dynamics-based approach for controlling complex systems modeled as networks of coupled multi-dimensional dynamical entities. For given dynamics and topology, we introduce an efficient scheme to identify in polynomial time a finite set of driver nodes, which - when endowed with the control function - steer the network to the desired behavior. We demonstrate the high suitability of our approach by controlling various networked multi-dimensional dynamics, coupled onto different topologies.
