%X <p>The partitioning problem is a key problem for distributed control techniques. The problem consists in the definition of the subnetworks of a dynamical system that can be considered as individual control agents in the distributed control approach. Despite its relevance and the different approaches proposed in the literature, no generalized technique to perform the partitioning of a network of dynamical systems is present yet. In this article, we introduce a general approach to partitioning for distributed control. This approach is composed by an algorithmic part selecting elementary subnetworks, and by an integer program, which aggregates the elementary components according to a global index. We empirically evaluated our approach on a distributed predictive control problem in the context of power systems, obtaining promising performances in terms of reduction of computation speed and resource cost, while retaining a good level of performance.</p>
