Flavonoids are a large and diverse group of compounds that, by their presence or absence,
contribute greatly to wine quality. While the flavonoid content and composition of a wine …

For more than 20 years, significant research effort was concentrated on globally
asynchronous, locally synchronous (GALS) design methodologies. But despite several …

TURBOMOLE is a highly optimized software suite for large-scale quantum-chemical and
materials science simulations of molecules, clusters, extended systems, and periodic solids …

An up-close look at the theory behind and application of extremum seeking Originally
developed as a method of adaptive control for hard-to-model systems, extremum seeking …

A new design procedure for adaptive nonlinear control is proposed in which the number of
parameter estimates is minimal, that is, equal to the number of unknown parameters. The …

The method of “integrator backstepping” emerged around 1990 as a robust version of
feedback linearization for nonlinear systems with uncertainties. Backstepping was …

While the mainstream methods of adaptive control (both linear and nonlinear) deal only with
regulation to known set points or reference trajectories, in many applications the set point …

This year is the 50th anniversary of Otto J. Smith's 1959 publication of a control design idea
commonly referred as the Smith predictor for the compensation of actuator delays. Actuator …

This paper poses and solves a new problem of stochastic (nonlinear) disturbance
attenuation where the task is to make the system solution bounded by a monotone function …

This monograph presents the fundamentals of global stabilization and optimal control of
nonlinear systems with uncertain models. It offers a unified view of deterministic disturbance …
