This book is a tribute to Prof. Alberto Isidori on the occasion of his 65th birthday. Prof. Isidori’s proli?c, pioneering and high-impact research activity has spanned over 35 years. Throughout his career, Prof. Isidori has developed ground-breaking results, has initiated researchdirections and has contributed towardsthe foundationofnonlinear controltheory.In addition,his dedication to explain intricate issues and di?cult concepts in a simple and rigorous way and to motivate young researchers has been instrumental to the intellectual growth of the nonlinear control community worldwide. The volume collects 27 contributions written by a total of 52 researchers. The principal author of each c...
Information and Control in Networks demonstrates the way in which system dynamics and information flows intertwine as they evolve, and the central role played by information in the control of complex networked systems. It is a milestone on the road to that convergence from traditionally independent development of control theory and information theory which has emerged strongly in the last fifteen years, and is now a very active research field. In addition to efforts in control and information theory, the text is witness to strong research in such diverse fields as computer science, mathematics, and statistics. Aspects that are given specialist treatment include: · data-rate theorems; · com...

This book presents state-of-the-art solution methods and applications of stochastic optimal control. It is a collection of extended papers discussed at the traditional Liverpool workshop on controlled stochastic processes with participants from both the east and the west. New problems are formulated, and progresses of ongoing research are reported. Topics covered in this book include theoretical results and numerical methods for Markov and semi-Markov decision processes, optimal stopping of Markov processes, stochastic games, problems with partial information, optimal filtering, robust control, Q-learning, and self-organizing algorithms. Real-life case studies and applications, e.g., queueing systems, forest management, control of water resources, marketing science, and healthcare, are presented. Scientific researchers and postgraduate students interested in stochastic optimal control,- as well as practitioners will find this book appealing and a valuable reference.
This work focuses on the Limited Information Shared Control and its controller design using potential games. Through the developed systematic controller design, the experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of this concept compared to traditional manual and non-cooperative control approaches in the application of large vehicle manipulators.
This textbook, the first comprehensive comparative study ever undertaken, surveys and compares the world’s ten largest diplomatic services: those of Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Japan, Russia, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Chapters cover the distinctive histories and cultures of the services, their changing role in foreign policy making, and their preparations for the new challenges of the twenty-first century.
Miten Putin laski kaiken väärin ja romahdutti Venäjän. Kirja kertoo Venäjän valtiollisen järjestelmän itsetuhosta Ukrainassa ja siitä, kuinka Suomi karkasi idän karsinasta Naton pilttuuseen. Miten ”täydellisen hyvä” Putinin diktatuuri voi tehdä niin ison virheen, että maa hajoaa sen johdosta? Miksi Ukrainaan oli pakko hyökätä? Entä olisiko Suomi kuulunut seuraaviin uhreihin? Putinin valtakausi näyttää olevan lopuillaan. Ukrainan sota kiihdyttää Venäjän kehitystä kohti sisällissotaa ja uutta "Sekaannuksen aikaa". Kirja kertoo, mitkä olivat Putinin mukaan tämän brutaalin hyökkäyksen henkiset perustelut. Ukrainan sota on myös salamanleimahduksen lailla palja...
