The book presents the latest developments and new directions in advanced control systems, as well as new theoretical discoveries, industrial applications, and case studies of complex engineering systems and materials science. The technological breakthrough at this stage is associated with digital transformation. It is assumed that innovations from different industries interact in a complex way. At the same time, fundamental research and its industrial implementation underlie the developed products and technologies and are aimed at improving modern technological processes and achievements. However, digital transformation not only opens up new opportunities, but also creates additional risks. The authors thank the Springer Nature team for cooperation.
