“…Control theory has arisen from the conceptualization and generalization of design strategies aimed at improving the stability, robustness and performance of physical systems in a number of applications, including mechanical devices, electrical/power networks, space and air systems, and chemical processes [1]. As shown in figure 1a, a closed loop feedback system involves a physical process to be controlled and a controller.…”

The past several years have witnessed an increased presence of control theoretic concepts in synthetic biology. This review presents an organized summary of how these control design concepts have been applied to tackle a variety of problems faced when building synthetic biomolecular circuits in living cells. In particular, we describe success stories that demonstrate how simple or more elaborate control design methods can be used to make the behaviour of synthetic genetic circuits within a single cell or across a cell population more reliable, predictable and robust to perturbations. The description especially highlights technical challenges that uniquely arise from the need to implement control designs within a new hardware setting, along with implemented or proposed solutions. Some engineering solutions employing complex feedback control schemes are also described, which, however, still require a deeper theoretical analysis of stability, performance and robustness properties. Overall, this paper should help synthetic biologists become familiar with feedback control concepts as they can be used in their application area. At the same time, it should provide some domain knowledge to control theorists who wish to enter the rising and exciting field of synthetic biology.

“…Due to the advantages such as low cost, simple installation, easy maintenance and great flexibility, networked control systems (NCSs) have been increasingly used in DC motor systems and largescale transportation vehicles, etc [1,8,27,31]. The NCSs is a feedback control system where the control loops are closed via a shared communication network.…”

“…A number of monographs and textbooks are devoted also to adaptive control, stochastic control, time-delayed control, discrete-time control, control of distributed systems and networks, etc. A comprehensive survey on control theory including its history and applications, particularly in physics, is worth mentioning [17]. Below, only one approach, the so-called speed gradient (SG) method will be outlined, since it is used in some other papers of this theme issue.…”

The subject and main areas of a new research field—cybernetical physics—are discussed. A brief history of cybernetical physics is outlined. The main areas of activity in cybernetical physics are briefly surveyed, such as control of oscillatory and chaotic behaviour, control of resonance and synchronization, control in thermodynamics, control of distributed systems and networks, quantum control. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Horizons of cybernetical physics’.
