Symmetry-based model reduction for approximate stochastic analysis
International audienceFor models of cell-to-cell communication, with many reactions and species per cell, the computational cost of stochastic simulation soon becomes intractable. Deterministic methods, while computationally more efficient, may fail to contribute reliable approximations for those models. In this paper, we suggest a reduction for models of cell-to-cell communication, based on symmetries of the underlying reaction network. To carry out a stochastic analysis that otherwise comes at an excessive computational cost, we apply a moment closure (MC) approach. We illustrate with a community effect, that allows synchronization of a group of cells in animal development. Comparing the results of stochastic simulation with deterministic and MC approximation, we show the assets of our approach. The reduction presented here is potentially applicable to a broad range of highly regular systems

Control for Societal-Scale Challenges Roadmap 2030
The world faces some of its greatest challenges of modern time and how we address them will have a dramatic impact on the life for generations to come. Simultaneously, control systems, consisting of information enriched by various degrees of analytics followed by decision-making, are pervading a variety of sectors, not only in engineering but beyond, into financial services, socio-economic analysis, entertainment and sports, and political and social sciences. Increased levels of automation are sought after in various sectors and being introduced into new domains. All of these advances and transformations urge a shift in the conversation toward how control systems can meet grand societal- scale challenges. The document seeks to chart a roadmap for the evolution of control systems, identifying several areas where our discipline can have an impact over the next decade
