In this chapter we give a quick overview of control theory, explaining why
integral feedback control works, describing PID controllers, and summariz-
ing some of the currently available techniques for PID controller design.
This background will serve to motivate our results on PID control, pre-
sent ...
If the space around us could adapt to our needs and intentions, then our lives
would be much simpler. We would have to spend less time on our daily chores,
we would be more productive and, hopefully, we would live in a less worrisome
and, most likely, more secure world
Modern information technologies and the advent of machines powered by artificial
intelligence (AI) have already strongly influenced the world of work in the 21st century.
Computers, algorithms and software simplify everyday tasks, and it is impossible
to imagine how most of our life could be managed ...
n recent years, there have been many books published on power system optimization.
Most of these books do not cover applications of artifi cial intelligence based methods.
Moreover, with the recent increase of artifi cial intelligence applications in various fi elds,
it is becoming a new trend in so ...
Computer science as an academic discipline began in the 1960’s. Emphasis was on
programming languages, compilers, operating systems, and the mathematical theory that
supported these areas. Courses in theoretical computer science covered finite automata,
regular expressions, context-free languages, ...
The present era of research and development is all about interdisciplinary studies
attempting to better comprehend and model our understanding of this vast universe.
The fields of biology and computer science are no exception. This book discusses
some of the innumerable ways in which computational m ...
Wherever possible the overall technique used for this series will be "definition by example" withgeneric formulae included for use in other applications. To make stability analysis easy we will usemore than one tool from our toolbox with data sheet information, tricks, rules-of-thumb, SPICESimulatio ...
German universities and scientists have repeatedly set the intermational standard in drive technology. Identification and active compensation of natural frequencies in oscillatory mechanics, status controls with monitoring structures incorporating acceleration sensors, adaptive compensation of measu ...
