Hierarchial Command, Control and Coupled Bilinear Systems


Book Description

Models of a coupled bilinear structure are studied here. Included are applications to immunology and generalized defense processes. In some cases, coupled bilinear systems arise naturally and in others they represent valid approximations to more highly nonlinear systems. A basis is developed for multi-level command and control. Finally, hierarchical pursuit-evasion strategies are introduced, and plans are presented for more detailed studies. (Author).






















Optimization and Control of Bilinear Systems


Book Description

Covers developments in bilinear systems theory Focuses on the control of open physical processes functioning in a non-equilibrium mode Emphasis is on three primary disciplines: modern differential geometry, control of dynamical systems, and optimization theory Includes applications to the fields of quantum and molecular computing, control of physical processes, biophysics, superconducting magnetism, and physical information science
