Constrained model predictive control: Stability and optimality

by D. Q. Mayne, J. B. Rawlings, C. V. Rao, P. O. M. Scokaert - AUTOMATICA , 2000
"... Model predictive control is a form of control in which the current control action is obtained by solving, at each sampling instant, a finite horizon open-loop optimal control problem, using the current state of the plant as the initial state; the optimization yields an optimal control sequence and t ..."

and/or time-varying systems. We concentrate our attention on research dealing with stability and optimality; in these areas the subject has developed, in our opinion, to a stage where it has achieved sufficient maturity to warrant the active interest of researchers in nonlinear control. We distill

An Integrated Experimental Environment for Distributed Systems and Networks

by Brian White, Jay Lepreau, Leigh Stoller, Robert Ricci, Shashi Guruprasad, Mac Newbold, Mike Hibler, Chad Barb, Abhijeet Joglekar - In Proc. of the Fifth Symposium on Operating Systems Design and Implementation , 2002
"... Three experimental environments traditionally support network and distributed systems research: network emulators, network simulators, and live networks. The continued use of multiple approaches highlights both the value and inadequacy of each. Netbed, a descendant of Emulab, provides an experimenta ..."
Abstract - Cited by 688 (41 self) - Add to MetaCart
an experimentation facility that integrates these approaches, allowing researchers to configure and access networks composed of emulated, simulated, and wide-area nodes and links. Netbed's primary goals are ease of use, control, and realism, achieved through consistent use of virtualization and abstraction.

The Varieties of Reference

by Jeff Evans , 1982
"... Tracing the development of concepts of affect and emotion in mathematics education (ME) research is informative for research on teaching statistics. In both areas, early research focused on more stable aspects of affect- beliefs, values and attitudes- using surveys to study dimensionality, and corre ..."

Haploview: analysis and visualization of LD and haplotype maps

by J. C. Barrett, B. Fry, J. Maller, M. J. Daly - BIOINFORMATICS , 2005
"... Summary: Research over the last few years has revealed significant haplotype structure in the human genome. The characterization of these patterns, particularly in the con-text of medical genetic association studies, is becoming a routine research activity. Haploview is a software pack-age that prov ..."

Data Mining: An Overview from Database Perspective

by Ming-syan Chen, Jiawei Hun, Philip S. Yu - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON KNOWLEDGE AND DATA ENGINEERING , 1996
"... Mining information and knowledge from large databases has been recognized by many researchers as a key research topic in database systems and machine learning, and by many industrial companies as an important area with an opportunity of major revenues. Researchers in many different fields have sh ..."

Entrepreneurship: Productive, Unproductive, and Destructive

by William J. Baumol - JOURNAL OF POLITICAL ECONOMY , 1990
"... The basic hypothesis is that, while the total supply of entrepreneurs varies anlong societies, the productive contribution of the society's entrepreneurial activities varies much more because of their allocation between productive activities such as innovation and largely unproductive activitie ..."

Anomaly Detection: A Survey

by Varun Chandola, Arindam Banerjee, Vipin Kumar , 2007
"... Anomaly detection is an important problem that has been researched within diverse research areas and application domains. Many anomaly detection techniques have been specifically developed for certain application domains, while others are more generic. This survey tries to provide a structured and c ..."

Models and issues in data stream systems

by Brian Babcock, Shivnath Babu, Mayur Datar, Rajeev Motwani, Jennifer Widom - IN PODS , 2002
"... In this overview paper we motivate the need for and research issues arising from a new model of data processing. In this model, data does not take the form of persistent relations, but rather arrives in multiple, continuous, rapid, time-varying data streams. In addition to reviewing past work releva ..."

Decision-Theoretic Planning: Structural Assumptions and Computational Leverage

by Craig Boutilier, Thomas Dean, Steve Hanks - JOURNAL OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE RESEARCH , 1999
"... Planning under uncertainty is a central problem in the study of automated sequential decision making, and has been addressed by researchers in many different fields, including AI planning, decision analysis, operations research, control theory and economics. While the assumptions and perspectives ..."
Abstract - Cited by 515 (4 self) - Add to MetaCart
and perspectives adopted in these areas often differ in substantial ways, many planning problems of interest to researchers in these fields can be modeled as Markov decision processes (MDPs) and analyzed using the techniques of decision theory. This paper presents an overview and synthesis of MDP
