Book Perturbation Analysis of Discrete Event Dynamic Systems

Download or read book Perturbation Analysis of Discrete Event Dynamic Systems written by Yu-Chi (Larry) Ho and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dynamic Systems (DEDS) are almost endless: military C31 Ilogistic systems, the emergency ward of a metropolitan hospital, back offices of large insurance and brokerage fums, service and spare part operations of multinational fums . . . . the point is the pervasive nature of such systems in the daily life of human beings. Yet DEDS is a relatively new phenomenon in dynamic systems studies. From the days of Galileo to Newton to quantum mechanics and cosmology of the present, dynamic systems in nature are primarily differential equations based and time driven. A large literature and endless success stories have been built up on such Continuous Variable Dynamic Systems (CVDS). It is, however, equally clear that DEDS are fundamentally different from CVDS. They are event driven, asynchronous, mostly man-made and only became significant during the past generation. Increasingly, however, it can be argued that in the modem world our lives are being impacted by and dependent upon the efficient operations of such DEDS. Yet compared to the successful paradigm of differential equations for CVDS the mathematical modelling of DEDS is in its infancy. Nor are there as many successful and established techniques for their analysis and synthesis. The purpose of this series is to promote the study and understanding of the modelling, analysis, control, and management of DEDS. The idea of the series came from editing a special issue of the Proceedings of IEEE on DEOS during 1988.

Book Analytic Perturbation Analysis of Discrete Event Dynamic Systems

Download or read book Analytic Perturbation Analysis of Discrete Event Dynamic Systems written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper considers a new Analytic Perturbation Analysis (APA) approach for Discrete Event Dynamic Systems (DEDS) with discontinuous sample-path functions with respect to control parameters. The performance functions for DEDS usually are formulated as mathematical expectations, which can be calculated only numerically. APA is based on new analytic formulas for the gradients of expectations of indicator functions; therefore, it is called an analytic perturbation analysis. The gradient of performance function may not coincide with the expectation of a gradient of sample-path function (i.e., the interchange formula for the gradient and expectation sign may not be valid). Estimates of gradients can be obtained with one simulation run of the models.

Book Stochastic Simulation Optimization For Discrete Event Systems  Perturbation Analysis  Ordinal Optimization And Beyond

Download or read book Stochastic Simulation Optimization For Discrete Event Systems Perturbation Analysis Ordinal Optimization And Beyond written by Chun-hung Chen and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2013-07-03 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discrete event systems (DES) have become pervasive in our daily lives. Examples include (but are not restricted to) manufacturing and supply chains, transportation, healthcare, call centers, and financial engineering. However, due to their complexities that often involve millions or even billions of events with many variables and constraints, modeling these stochastic simulations has long been a “hard nut to crack”. The advance in available computer technology, especially of cluster and cloud computing, has paved the way for the realization of a number of stochastic simulation optimization for complex discrete event systems. This book will introduce two important techniques initially proposed and developed by Professor Y C Ho and his team; namely perturbation analysis and ordinal optimization for stochastic simulation optimization, and present the state-of-the-art technology, and their future research directions.

Book Max Plus Linear Stochastic Systems and Perturbation Analysis

Download or read book Max Plus Linear Stochastic Systems and Perturbation Analysis written by Bernd F. Heidergott and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-12-26 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a thorough review and explanation of the theory of stochastic max-plus linear systems, which has seen rapid advances in the last decade. The coverage includes modeling issues and stability theory for stochastic max-plus systems, perturbation analysis of max-plus systems, developing a calculus for differentiation of max-plus systems. This leads to numerical evaluations of performance indices of max-plus linear stochastic systems, such as the Lyapunov exponent or waiting times.

Book Discrete Event Dynamic Systems

Book excerpt: Abstract: "In this report we present an overview for the development of a theory for discrete event dynamic systems (DEDS). Dynamic systems are usually modeled by finite state automata with partially observable events together with a mechanism for enabling and disabling a subset of state transitions. DEDS are attracting considerable interests, current applications are found in manufacturing systems, communications and air traffic systems, future applications will include robotics, computer vision and AI. We will discuss notions of modeling, stability issues, observability, feedback and invertibility. We will also discuss the perturbation analysis technique (PA) for analyzing and describing the behavior of DEDS."
