Review Differential Neural Networks for Robust Nonlinear Control / World Scientific Publishing Company:This volume deals with continuous time dynamic neural networks theory applied to the solution of basic problems in robust control theory, including identification, state space estimation (based on neuro-observers) and trajectory tracking. The plants to be identified and controlled are assumed to be a priori unknown but belonging to a given class containing internal unmodelled dynamics and external perturbations as well. The error stability analysis and the corresponding error bounds for different problems are presented. The effectiveness of the suggested approach is illustrated by its application to various controlled physical systems (robotic, chaotic, chemical).

Review Handbooks in Operations Research and Management Science, 7: Network Models (Handbooks in Operations Research and Management Science) (Handbooks in Operations Research and Management Science) / Elsevier:Hardbound. The set of papers in this Handbook reflect the rich theory and wide range of applications of network models. Two of the most vibrant applications areas of network models are telecommunications and transportation. Several chapters explicitly model issues arising in these problem domains. Research on network models has been closely aligned with the field of computer science both in developing data structures for efficiently implementing network algorithms and in analyzing the complexity of network problems and algorithms. The basic structure underlying all network problems is a graph. Thus, historically, there have been strong ties between network models and graph theory. A companion volume in the Handbook series, entitled Network Routing, examines problems related to the movement of commodities over a network. The problems treated arise in several application areas including logistics, telecommunications, facility location, VLSI desi.

Review Design And Analysis Of Wireless Networks: Wireless Networks And Mobile Computing (Wireless Networks and Mobile Computing) / Kluwer Academic Publishers:Mobile and wireless networks have experienced an explosive growth during the last few years. Their impact ranges from medical, to military, to industrial, and to societal. In fact, mobile and wireless networking is gradually emerging as a discipline. The primary focus of this book is the rapidly evolving design methodologies and analytical models of wireless networks. The design, development, and analysis of wireless networks that can effectively be used in many applications remain challenging research problems due to the complexity involved. However, recent advances in wireless technology have addressed successfully many of the obstacles hindering the wide deployment of wireless networks. How to develop more efficient and reliable wireless networks and effectively model them using analytical models or simulation models remains a hot research area. The goal of the book is to serve as a reference for current design methodology and analytical models that can be used to design and analyse various wireless network systems. Important developments, new strategies, and promising analytical models for design of efficient and reliable wireless networks are presented. Important features and limitations of methods and models are identified. [+]Consequently, this book can serve as a useful reference for researchers, educators, graduate students, and practitioners in the field of wireless networks. This book contains 14 invited chapters from prominent researchers working in this area around the world. The book is basically divided into three main parts. The authors believe all of these chapters not only provide novel ideas, new analytical models, simulation and experimental results and handful experience in this field, but also stimulate the future research activities in the area of design and analysis of wireless networks.

Review Information Warfare in Business: Strategies of Control and Resistance in the Network Society (Routledge Studies in Business Organization and Networks) / Routledge:Information Warfare in Business provides a significant and highly topical perspective on the concept of the network organization. Information warfare covers a diverse range of techniques that are transforming both military affairs and business practice. Both business and military organizations are increasingly reliant upon information technology, and information has become a valuable resource in its own right. Individuals and organizations are increasingly subjected to information warfare attacks and must guard against them. This book outlines the many forms information warfare can take and the various weapons at its disposal - these include high technology approaches like hacking, identity theft and the spread of computer viruses, and low technology approaches such as the use of misinformation and propaganda and the execution of confidence tricks to obtain restricted information. Over recent years non-business organizations (such as Napster and Linux) have emerged that have developed a nomadic strategy to pursue their aims and resist the power of global multinational corporations. On a political level, such strategies have been employed by protest groups like the Mexican Zapatista rebels. This book also examines the power-relations that are emerging alongside the development of information warfare, using the social theory of Michel Foucault, Paul Virilio, Antonio Negri, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari. As we move from disciplinary societies to societies of free-floating networks of control, the means of production for service economies are increasingly orientated around exploiting the employee's minds, their emotions and their interactions with others.

Review Mathematical Theory of Networks and Systems (MTNS): Padova, July 6-10, 1998 (Progress in Systems and Control Theory) / Birkhauser:This volume contains expanded versions of talks delivered by leading experts at the Mathematical Theory of Networks and Systems Symposium (MTNS 98) in Padova, Italy, in July 1998. It is a valuable reference for anyone with an interest in the analysis and design of engineering systems. Systems, control, and network theory have permeated the development of much of present-day technology. The impact has been visible in the past fifty years through the dramatic expansion and achievements of the aerospace and avionics industry, through applications to process control and factory automation, robotics, communication signals analysis and synthesis, and, more recently, even finance, to name just the most visible applications. The theory has developed from the early phase of its history when the basic tools were elementary complex analysis, Laplace transform, and linear differential equations, to the present day, where the mathematics ranges widely from functional analysis, PDEs, abstract algebra, stochastic processes and differential geometry. Irrespective of the particular tools, however, the basic unifying paradigms of feedback, stability, optimal control, and recursive filtering have remained the bulk of the field and continue to form the basic motivation of the theory coming from the real wo rld. This book is a collection of essays devoted in part to new research directions in systems, networks and control theory, and in part to the growing interaction of these disciplines with coding, computer vision, and hybrid systems. The essays, written by world-renowned experts in the field, reproduce and expand plenary and minicourse/minisymposia invited lectures which were delivered at the Mathematical Theory of Networks and Systems Symposium (MTNS-98) held in Padova, Italy, on July 6-10, 1998. This volume should be a valuable reference to graduate students, scientists, and researchers in the area of information and control engineering and to mathematicians with an interest in the analysis and design of engineering systems. It should be also valuable to the system and control community as an introduction to system-related methods in coding, vision, and control of hybrid systems.

Review Network-Centric Computing: Preparing the Enterprise for the Next Millennium / Computer Technology Research Corporation:This new report from CTR traces the development of network-centric computing and describes the effects it will have on the enterprise. The report serves as a guide for information technology (IT) professionals who are responsible for enabling network-centric computing. Network-centric Computing Explored CTR's new report, Network-centric Computing: Preparing the Enterprise for the Next Millennium, provides a strategic analysis of the major issues of network-centric computing. This philosophy - network-centric computing - involves a complex relationship between computer user, local computer, server, and data beyond the server. The report will help information systems (IS) managers: evaluate the potential for network computing devices, understand the technical aspects of network-centric computing, and determine the benefits and limitations of this emerging technology. Java: The Key to Network-centric Computing With the explosive growth of the Internet and the Web and the emergence of the Java programming language, network computing is finally poised to thrive. Although this technology breaks many of the conventional rules for application development (AD), it succeeds in its goals. The report examines the Java language and how it can be used to enable the concept of network-centric computing on the software side. As the vendor that has espoused network computing since its founding and the vendor that conceived of and developed the Java programming language, Sun Microsystems is both the leader and the leading proponent of the concept of network-centric computing. The report covers how Sun reached this position and examines its strategy for implementing network-centric computing. [+]Operating System Issues: From Client/Server to Thin Client As enterprises have become more fully networked, the first step in the evolution of network computing has been client/server (C/S) computing. Network-centric Computing: Preparing the Enterprise for the Next Millennium analyzes the implementations of C/S computing and discusses the benefits, difficulties, and limitations of this technology. Another factor in network-centric computing has been the network operating system (NOS). The report evaluates UNIX, Windows NT, and Novell's NetWare as viable network operating systems and looks at their advantages and limitations for network-centric computing. Today, Windows 95 or NT can occupy 100 MB or more on an individual PC hard disk. Business productivity applications can occupy tens or even hundreds of additional MBs. These operating systems and applications can also be difficult and time-consuming to install. In response, the thin client concept requires very little space on the local computer, with operating system (OS) services and applications largely run from a server. The report discusses the thin client concept, explains how it works, and discusses its implications for enterprise computing. Hardware Concerns Network-centric computing threatens the business of desktop computers and traditional PC operating systems and applications. This threat endangers the very existence of Microsoft, which is touted as the premier software company in the world. The report describes how Microsoft is defending its core business against the onslaught of network-centric computing through a strategy of embracing the concept itself while continuing to promote the PC as a standalone computing device. The hardware supporting the thin client concept is the network computer (NC). Currently, there exists a reference specification for the NC, which was developed by Oracle and others. The report addresses this NC reference specification and its implementation by different hardware vendors. It also looks at NC offerings that do not follow this reference specification. Network-centric Computing: A Look Ahead The most rapid growth in network-centric computing is not projected to occur in traditional computers, but rather in entirely new classes of devices that will be network-enabled. These devices include cellular telephones, "smart" cards, and televisions. The report examines how network-centric computing is changing the computing landscape and discusses current trends and future technology advances of the Internet, the Web, and network computing. Network-centric Computing: Preparing the Enterprise for the Next Millennium is an invaluable resource for IS professionals who are responsible for selecting and implementing effective systems to enable network-centric computing.
