Max-Plus Linear Stochastic Systems and Perturbation Analysis
Springer 2006; US$ 139.99Provides a treatment of the theory of stochastic max-plus linear systems. This book addresses modeling issues and stability theory for stochastic max-plus systems. It also treats perturbation analysis of max-plus systems: a calculus for differentiation of max-plus systems is developed. more...
Optimal Control with Engineering Applications
Springer 2007; US$ 79.99Because the theoretical part of the book is based on the calculus of variations, the exposition is very transparent and requires mostly a trivial mathematical background. In the case of open-loop optimal control, this leads to Pontryagins Minimum Principle and, in the case of closed-loop optimal control, to the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman theory which... more...
