It's a distributed control system. Each segment has a ganglion that acts as a small "brain" to control its pair of legs. The centipede brain sends a go signal and the ganglion handles the motion, coordinating its timing with signals from the segments ahead and behind. There's also a Central Pattern Generator (CPG), an which is an intrasegmental network of neurons which generates a rhythmic output, that keeps them all in step.
