Abstract :
Networked control systems (NCS) are in existence for quite some time. The network-induced delays and packet drops; and their effect on control system´s performance has been a burning topic for last one decade. Dependability in context of NCS has not got much attention. While it is an important aspect of NCS intended to be used in critical application. The paper reviews the present state of developments in NCS and presents open problems pertaining to dependability of NCS. Solutions to these problems may increase the presence of NCS by many folds and in many fields.
