Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the 21st century nears, there is a need to seriously reconsider many aspects of modeling and controlling large, complex, man-made systems. Integration of technologies and functions requires deep interdisciplinary expertise and technical breadth for successful implementation. Large scale systems theory can play a central role in this effort and it is a strongly held belief that this approach will continue to be of major importance in the future.

Book excerpt: This volume contains the papers presented at the 9th IFAC Symposium on Large Scale Systems: Theory and Applications (LSS 2001), held in Bucharest, Romania, 18-20 July 2001. Its aim was to address the control aspects of those industrial, economic, social and environmental systems whose characteristics are high dimensionality, non-linearity and uncertainty, associated with a multitude of structural forms, with intense and time critical information exchange and efficient co-ordination. The symposium covered all major aspects of large scale, complex systems including methodological aspects, technological solutions and practical applications. methodological aspects and those devoted to practical applications. Several invited sessions were organised, including papers from leading world experts. The papers are ordered in accordance with the technical sessions. Session topics include methodology and application fields, traditional to this Symposium series. Topics covered include the following: modelling and model reduction; decentralized control and estimation; hierarchical control; intelligent and fuzzy control; nonlinear dynamics in complex systems; complex systems theory and analysis; water, gas, power systems; large scale CIMs and production planning and scheduling; communication and information systems; transportation systems; modelling and control of wastewater treatment plants and societal systems modelling, planning and management. technical programme, such as decision support systems and risk and governance in large-scale systems. More recent issues, such as risk management and human decision in large-scale systems, were well received by the symposium participants and provide an extra dimension to volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents a clear understanding of a new type of computation system, the Cellular Neural Network (CNN), which has been successfully applied to the solution of many heavy computation problems, mainly in the fields of image processing and complex partial differential equations. The text describes how CNN will improve the soft-computation toolbox, and examines the many applications of soft computing to complex systems.

Download or read book Online Optimization of Large Scale Systems written by Martin Grötschel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 789 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In its thousands of years of history, mathematics has made an extraordinary ca reer. It started from rules for bookkeeping and computation of areas to become the language of science. Its potential for decision support was fully recognized in the twentieth century only, vitally aided by the evolution of computing and communi cation technology. Mathematical optimization, in particular, has developed into a powerful machinery to help planners. Whether costs are to be reduced, profits to be maximized, or scarce resources to be used wisely, optimization methods are available to guide decision making. Opti mization is particularly strong if precise models of real phenomena and data of high quality are at hand - often yielding reliable automated control and decision proce dures. But what, if the models are soft and not all data are around? Can mathematics help as well? This book addresses such issues, e. g. , problems of the following type: - An elevator cannot know all transportation requests in advance. In which order should it serve the passengers? - Wing profiles of aircrafts influence the fuel consumption. Is it possible to con tinuously adapt the shape of a wing during the flight under rapidly changing conditions? - Robots are designed to accomplish specific tasks as efficiently as possible. But what if a robot navigates in an unknown environment? - Energy demand changes quickly and is not easily predictable over time. Some types of power plants can only react slowly.

Download or read book Dimension Reduction of Large Scale Systems written by Peter Benner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-03-30 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decades, model reduction has become an ubiquitous tool in analysis and simulation of dynamical systems, control design, circuit simulation, structural dynamics, CFD, and many other disciplines dealing with complex physical models. The aim of this book is to survey some of the most successful model reduction methods in tutorial style articles and to present benchmark problems from several application areas for testing and comparing existing and new algorithms. As the discussed methods have often been developed in parallel in disconnected application areas, the intention of the mini-workshop in Oberwolfach and its proceedings is to make these ideas available to researchers and practitioners from all these different disciplines.
Download or read book Intelligent Control Systems Using Soft Computing Methodologies written by Ali Zilouchian and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2001-03-27 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, intelligent control has emerged as one of the most active and fruitful areas of research and development. Until now, however, there has been no comprehensive text that explores the subject with focus on the design and analysis of biological and industrial applications. Intelligent Control Systems Using Soft Computing Methodologies does all that and more. Beginning with an overview of intelligent control methodologies, the contributors present the fundamentals of neural networks, supervised and unsupervised learning, and recurrent networks. They address various implementation issues, then explore design and verification of neural networks for a variety of applications, including medicine, biology, digital signal processing, object recognition, computer networking, desalination technology, and oil refinery and chemical processes. The focus then shifts to fuzzy logic, with a review of the fundamental and theoretical aspects, discussion of implementation issues, and examples of applications, including control of autonomous underwater vehicles, navigation of space vehicles, image processing, robotics, and energy management systems. The book concludes with the integration of genetic algorithms into the paradigm of soft computing methodologies, including several more industrial examples, implementation issues, and open problems and open problems related to intelligent control technology. Suitable as a textbook or a reference, Intelligent Control Systems explores recent advances in the field from both the theoretical and the practical viewpoints. It also integrates intelligent control design methodologies to give designers a set of flexible, robust controllers and provide students with a tool for solving the examples and exercises within the book.
