Sommario/riassunto

This book offers a concise and in-depth exposition of specific algorithmic solutions for distributed optimization based control of multi-agent networks and their performance analysis. It synthesizes and analyzes distributed strategies for three collaborative tasks: distributed cooperative optimization, mobile sensor deployment and multi-vehicle formation control. The book integrates miscellaneous



ideas and tools from dynamic systems, control theory, graph theory, optimization, game theory and Markov chains to address the particular challenges introduced by such complexities in the environment as topological dynamics, environmental uncertainties, and potential cyber-attack by human adversaries. The book is written for first- or second-year graduate students in a variety of engineering disciplines, including control, robotics, decision-making, optimization and algorithms and with backgrounds in aerospace engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and operations research. Researchers in these areas may also find the book useful as a reference.

Sommario/riassunto

The first in the classic series featuring Chief Inspector Damiot of the Paris police."Chief Inspector Damiot of the Paris police, recuperating from a bullet wound, seeks sun and rest in Courville, his boyhood village in Provence. But Courville is lately in a ferment about the unsolved murders of two young girls--one a promiscuous villager, the other still unidentified. And there are also rumors of a monster seen at the supposedly-empty Chateau De Mohrt. Intrigued, Damiot soon discovers that the last of the De Mohrts, a severely crippled genius, is indeed in residence--with a scientific lab in full swing...
