Comparisons of practical hierarchical control methods for interconnected dynamical systems

TL;DR: It is seen that both the algorithms of Tamura as well as the Takahara-Sage method are particularly suited to systems with slow dynamics whereas Pearson's pseudo-model co-ordination method could be used advantageously for systems with fast dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI

A heuristic approach to the hierarchical control of multivariable serially connected dynamical systems

TL;DR: A heuristic approach is developed for the control of serially connected dynamical systems with and without time delays between the subsystems that enables near optimal control to be achieved and has particularly modest computational requirements.
Journal ArticleDOI

The relation of management to control technology—further applied studies in creative management of potential conflict at international levels

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of logic in the fully adaptive network categories of cybernetics and total creative management can be achieved by control and adaptation using techniques of the combination, mathematically and statistically of measurement control and logic; probability mathematics; Stochastic adaptive management; Actuarial and legal process.

Expected Global Needs in the 21st Century for Qualified Engineers Both in Quantity and Quality

TL;DR: In this article, a measure of the dependence of growth of gross national product on the availability of qualified engineers was obtained from statistics on the employment of engineers, technologists and scientists in the United Kingdom.
