Solving optimization problems in complex systems often requires the implementation of advanced mathematical techniques. Quadratic programming (QP) is one technique that allows for the optimization of
Optimal Design of Distributed Control and Embedded Systems focuses on the design of special control and scheduling algorithms based on system structural properties as well as on analysis of the influe
This thesis presents a wholly new technique in the structural analysis of data that uses a ‘greedy’ algorithm to derive optimal sparse solutions, enabling faster and more accurate results in formerly
The present study has attempted to apply the advantage of neuro-genetic algorithms for optimal decision making in maximum utilization of natural resources. Hydro-power is one of the inexpensive, but a
The complexity of modern supply chains requires decision makers in logistics to work with a set of efficient (Pareto optimal) solutions, mainly to catch different economic aspects for which one optim
This book focuses on the problem of video streaming over emerging cognitive radio (CR) networks, ad hoc CR networks, cooperative CR networks, and femtocell CR networks. It presents optimal algorithms
Markov random field (MRF) theory provides a basis for modeling contextual constraints in visual processing and interpretation. It enables us to develop optimal vision algorithms systematically when us
