Researchers have developed a novel approach to enhance the performance of networked systems that undergo plug-and-play operations, such as the addition or removal of subsystems. This method utilizes distributed neural controllers based on the Internal Model Control (IMC) principle, which ensures closed-loop stability by meeting a finite $\ell_2$-gain requirement. The proposed controllers are trained using unconstrained gradient-based optimization, eliminating the need for stability constraints or projection steps. A case study on a DC microgrid demonstrated that these neural layers improve voltage transients during topology changes and load variations while maintaining nominal closed-loop stability. AI
