Biomedical and Life Physics
Der Band enthält die Beiträge der Sektion D des zweiten Gauss-Symposiums vom 2. - 8. August 1993 in München. Die Themen der Beiträge spannen den weiten Bogen von mathematischer Modellierung von biologisch und medizinisch wichtigen Prozessen über Fragen der Medikamentierung bis hin zur Erforschung des menschlichen Bewußtseins.
System Identification
System Identification shows the student reader how to approach the system identification problem in a systematic fashion. The process is divided into three basic steps: experimental design and data collection; model structure selection and parameter estimation; and model validation, each of which is the subject of one or more parts of the text. Following an introduction on system theory, particularly in relation to model representation and model properties, the book contains four parts covering: • data-based identification – non-parametric methods for use when prior system knowledge is very limited; • time-invariant identification for systems with constant parameters; • time-varying ...
Identification and Control of Sheet and Film Processes
Sheet and film processes include coating, papermaking, metal rolling, and polymer film extrusion. Products produced by these processes include paper, bumper stickers, plastic bags, windshield safety glass, and sheet metal. The total capitalization of industries that rely on these processes is well over $ 500 billion worldwide. These processes are notorious for being difficult to control. The goal of this book is to present the theoretical background and practical techniques for the identification and control of sheet and film processes. It is explained why many existing industrial control systems perform poorly for sheet and film processes. Identification and control algorithms are described...
Networking 2004
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third IFIP-TC6 Networking Conference, NETWORKING 2004, held in Athens, Greece, in May 2004. The 103 revised full papers and 40 revised short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 539 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on network security; TCP performance; ad-hoc networks; wavelength management; multicast; wireless network performance; inter-domain routing; packet classification and scheduling; services and monitoring; admission control; competition in networks; 3G/4G wireless systems; MPLS and related technologies; flow and congestion control; performance of IEEE 802.11; optical networks; TCP and congestion; key management; authentication and DOS prevention; energy aspects of wireless networks; optical network access; routing in ad-hoc networks; fault detection, restoration, and tolerance; QoS metrics, algorithms, and architecture; content distribution, caching, and replication; and routing theory and path computation.
Artificial Intelligence in Real-Time Control 1991
This set of proceedings contains the most significant papers presented at the third IFAC Workshop on Artificial Intelligence in Real-time Control, which was held from September 23-25, 1991 in the USA. In this workshop, although there were still some "exotic" applications, a more practical view of the applications and limitations of current AI technology dominated the participants' discussions. With its resultant focus on reliability and safety considerations, the workshop posed as many questions as it answered. It provides an excellent mirror of the current state-of-the-art which these proceedings are intended to illustrate.

Computer Aided Control System Design
This book is about Computer Aided Control System Design (CACSD) of the direct process controller. Various methods and tools, representing an up-to-date level of development, are presented by leading experts. Several articles describe main principles and problems associated with modern direct control and with CACSD. Existing tools are presented, including packages for stability analysis of nonlinear systems, adaptive control design and integrated analysis, and simulation and tuning of controllers. The reader can observe that it is possible to develop CACSD tools by using open general packages such as Matlab or Simulab, or by providing specialised software. He can then compare both approaches and get an improved understanding of their respective advantages and disadvantages. The leading article by the editors presents CACSD Methods and tools in a broader context. There is also detailed material on upper control layers, hierarchical control, and real-time systems.
Sensory Robotics for the Handling of Limp Materials
Limp materials are used in many economically impo~tant industries such as garment manufacture, shoe manufacture, aerospace (composites) and automobiles (seats and trim). The use of sensors is essential for reliable robotic handling of these materials, which are often based on naturally occurring substances such as cotton and leather. The materials are limp and have non-homogeneous mechanical properties which are often impossible to predict accurately. The applications are very demanding for vision and tactile sensing and signal processing, adaptive control systems, planning and systems integration. This book comprises the collection of papers presented at the NATO Advanced Research Workshop ...
Control of Dead-time Processes
This text introduces the fundamental techniques for controlling dead-time processes from simple monovariable to complex multivariable cases. Dead-time-process-control problems are studied using classical proportional-integral-differential (PID) control for the simpler examples and dead-time-compensator (DTC) and model predictive control (MPC) methods for progressively more complex ones. Downloadable MATLAB® code makes the examples and ideas more convenient and simpler.
Tracking Control of Linear Systems
The primary purpose of control is to force desired behavior in an unpredictable environment, under the actions of unknown, possibly unmeasurable disturbances and unpredictable, and therefore probably nonzero, initial conditions. This means that tracking and tracking control synthesis are fundamental control issues. Surprisingly, however, tracking theory has not been well developed, and stability theory has dominated. Tracking Control of Linear Systems presents the fundamentals of tracking theory for control systems. The book introduces the full transfer function matrix F(s), which substantially changes the theory of linear dynamical and control systems and enables a novel synthesis of tracki...
