Abstract

Network control systems (NCSs) heavily rely on information and communication technologies for sharing information between sensors and controllers as well as controllers and actuators. When estimation, control or actuation tasks in a NCS are performed by an untrusted party, sharing information might result in the leakage of private information. The current paper reviews some of the recent results on the privacy-aware decision-making problems in NCSs. In particular, we focus on static and dynamic decision-making problems wherein privacy is measured using information-theoretic notions. We also review the applications of these problems in smart buildings and smart grids.
