Dreyfus, Sally Humphrey, Ahmar Mahboob, J. R. MartinLondon :Palgrave Macmillan UK :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2016.1 online resource (XV, 298 p.) 1-349-56171-1 This book describes the linguistic and pedagogical dimensions of a large action research project that deployed and extended the current work on genre pedagogy to an on-line learning environment. In particular, it explores how genre-based pedagogy can be used to support the academic literacy development of non-English speaking background (NESB) students in tertiary educational institutions to develop their academic literacy practice. The book reports on work with the Department of Chinese, Translation & Linguistics (CTL) and the Department of Biology and Chemistry (BCH) in a 2-year project called the SLATE (Scaffolding Literacy in Academic and Tertiary Environments) project. It includes theoretically and practically-oriented material that can serve the needs of researchers and practitioners engaged with the literacy development of tertiary students in both English-speaking and non-English speaking countries.EducationLinguisticsLanguage and educationHigher educationLiteracyLanguage and languagesStudy and teachingEducationHigher EducationLiteracyLanguage TeachingLinguistics, generalLanguage EducationEducation.Linguistics.Language and education.Higher education.Literacy.Language and languagesStudy and teaching.Education.Higher Education.Literacy.Language Teaching.Linguistics, general.Language Education.378Dreyfus Shoshana J1225701Humphrey SallyMahboob AhmarMartin J.

An MPC selects control actions which are optimal with respect to a given performance metric as well as any physically-motivated constraints. MPC has therefore gained significant research attention over the past several decades. Advances in MPC continue to unlock its potential to solve a wide variety of practical issues. This book presents some of the state-of-the-art in MPC design from theoretical and applications perspectives. It covers a broad spectrum of MPC application areas, reviewing applications as diverse as air conditioning, pharmaceutical manufacturing, mineral column flotation, actuator faults, and hydraulic fracturing, while also highlighting recent theoretical advancements in control technology that integrate it with data-driven models, zone tracking, or process safety and cybersecurity. Both centralized and distributed MPC formulations are presented. The purpose of this book is to assemble a collection of current research in MPC that handles practically-motivated theoretical issues as well as recent MPC applications, with the aim of highlighting the significant potential benefits of new MPC theory and design.History of engineering and technologybicsscreceding horizon controloptimal controlpredictive controlHistory of engineering and technologyLiu Jinfeng1760326Durand Helen EScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910346670203321New Directions on Model Predictive Control4317635UNINA
