This book presents a framework for the control of networked systems utilizing submodular optimization techniques. The main focus is on selecting input nodes for the control of networked systems, an inherently discrete optimization problem with applications in power system stability, social influence...
Invariance Entropy for Deterministic Control Systems
An Introduction
Language: English
Release Date: October 2, 2013
This monograph provides an introduction to the concept of invariance entropy, the central motivation of which lies in the need to deal with communication constraints in networked control systems. For the simplest possible network topology, consisting of one controller and one dynamical system connected...
Robust Control of Uncertain Dynamic Systems
A Linear State Space Approach
Language: English
Release Date: December 5, 2013
This textbook aims to provide a clear understanding of the various tools of analysis and design for robust stability and performance of uncertain dynamic systems. In model-based control design and analysis, mathematical models can never completely represent the “real world” system that is being...
Optimal Space Flight Navigation
An Analytical Approach
Language: English
Release Date: December 20, 2018
This book consolidates decades of knowledge on space flight navigation theory, which has thus far been spread across various research articles. By gathering this research into a single text, it will be more accessible to students curious about the study of space flight navigation. Books on optimal...

Release Date: August 24, 2012
This book presents a unified frequency-domain method for the analysis of distributed control systems. The following important topics are discussed by using the proposed frequency-domain method: (1) Scalable stability criteria of networks of distributed control systems; (2) Effect of heterogeneous...
Robust Filtering for Uncertain Systems
A Parameter-Dependent Approach
Language: English
Release Date: April 10, 2014
This monograph provides the reader with a systematic treatment of robust filter design, a key issue in systems, control and signal processing, because of the fact that the inevitable presence of uncertainty in system and signal models often degrades the filtering performance and may even cause instability....
So You Think Medicine is Modern
Revolutionising Health Care for the 21st Century
Language: English
Release Date: April 22, 2015
Disappointed by the lack of uptake in the utilisation of Health Outcomes into routine day-to-day medical practice, Dr Price was confronted by the objection that as these measures were patients’ responses to questions they were “subjective” and therefore not good science. Medicine, said the doctors,...
Models of Science Dynamics
Encounters Between Complexity Theory and Information Sciences
Language: English
Release Date: January 25, 2012
Models of Science Dynamics aims to capture the structure and evolution of science, the emerging arena in which scholars, science and the communication of science become themselves the basic objects of research. In order to capture the essence of phenomena as diverse as the structure of co-authorship...
Adaptive Control
Algorithms, Analysis and Applications
Language: English
Release Date: June 6, 2011
Adaptive Control (second edition) shows how a desired level of system performance can be maintained automatically and in real time, even when process or disturbance parameters are unknown and variable. It is a coherent exposition of the many aspects of this field, setting out the problems to be addressed...
Autonomous Learning Systems
From Data Streams to Knowledge in Real-time
Language: English
Release Date: November 6, 2012
Autonomous Learning Systems is the result of over a decade of focused research and studies in this emerging area which spans a number of well-known and well-established disciplines that include machine learning, system identification, data mining, fuzzy logic, neural networks, neuro-fuzzy systems,...

Language: English
Release Date: July 17, 2014
This monograph is an up-to-date presentation of the analysis and design of singular Markovian jump systems (SMJSs) in which the transition rate matrix of the underlying systems is generally uncertain, partially unknown and designed. The problems addressed include stability, stabilization, H∞ control...
Complexity in Financial Markets
Modeling Psychological Behavior in Agent-Based Models and Order Book Models
Language: English
Release Date: August 28, 2013
Tools and methods from complex systems science can have a considerable impact on the way in which the quantitative assessment of economic and financial issues is approached, as discussed in this thesis. First it is shown that the self-organization of financial markets is a crucial factor in the understanding...
