Designing emergency response networks for hazardous materials transportation
(2007)Undesirable consequences of dangerous goods incidents can be mitigated by quick arrival of specialized response teams at the accident site. We present a novel methodology to determine the optimal design of a specialized ... -
Discrete-time LQ optimal repetitive control
(IEEE, 1999)LQ optimal repetitive control is developed in single-input single-output discrete-time signal/system framework. For a given plant and a stabilizing controller, the LQ optimal repetitive control system can be obtained by ... -
Fixed zeros of decentralized control systems
(IEEE, 2000)This paper considers the notion of decentralized fixed zeros for linear, time-invariant, finite-dimensional systems. For an N-channel plant that is free of unstable decentralized fixed modes, an unstable decentralized fixed ... -
LQ optimal design at finitely many frequencies
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 1998)The notion of Linear Quadratic (LQ) optimality at a single frequency is developed in single-input single-output (SISO) linear time-invariant (LTI) system/quasi-stationary signal framework and the optimality condition is ... -
Minimizing Lmax for the single machine scheduling problem with family set-ups
(Taylor & Francis, 2004)A procedure for the single machine-scheduling problem of minimizing the maximum lateness for jobs with sequence independent set-ups is presented. The procedure provides optimal/near-optimal solutions over a wide range of ... -
Optimal control for a class of partially observed bilinear stochastic systems
(IEEE, 1990)An alternative formulation is presented for a class of partially observed bilinear stochastic control problems which is described by three sets of stochastic differential equations: one for the system to be controlled, one ... -
Optimal control of a two-stage stochastic hybrid manufacturing system with Poisson arrivals and exponential service times
(IEEE, 2005)Extending earli'er work on single-stage stochastic hybrid system models, we consider a two-stage stochastic hybrid system where the job arrivals are represented through a Poisson process, and the service times required to ... -
Optimal pattern of technology adoptions under embodiment: a multi-stage optimal control approach
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2011)By deriving the necessary conditions for a multi-stage optimal control problem where the endogenous switching instants appear as an argument of the state equation, we analyze the optimal pattern of technology adoptions ... -
Parameter identification for partially observed diffusions
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers, 1992)In this paper, we consider the identification problem of drift and dispersion parameters for a class of partially observed systems governed by Ito equations. Using the pathwise description of the Zakai equation, we formulate ... -
Robust LQ control for harmonic reference/disturbance signals
(IEEE, 2000)Linear Quadratic (LQ) controller design is considered for continuous-time systems with harmonic signals of known frequencies and it is shown that the design is reducible to an interpolation problem. All LQ optimal loops ... -
Sensitivity minimization by stable controllers: an interpolation approach for suboptimal solutions
(IEEE, 2007)Weighted sensitivity minimization is studied within the framework of strongly stabilizing (stable)H∞controller design for a class of infinite dimensional systems. This problem has been solved by Ganesh and Pearson, [8], ... -
Short time series microarray data analysis and biological annotation
(IEEE, 2008)Significant gene list is the result of microarray data analysis should be explained for the purpose of biological functions. The aim of this study is to extract the biologically related gene clusters over the short time ...
