After casual observations of how patients managed this painful blood disorder, the researchers in question postulated that the Senegalese type was less severe. The Enculturated Gene traces how this genetic discourse has blotted from view the roles that Senegalese patients and doctors have played in making sickle cell ""mild"" in a social setting where public health priorities and economic austerity programs have forced people to 606 $aSickle cell anemia$xSocial aspects$zSenegal 606 $aSickle cell anemia$xGenetic aspects 606 $aSickle cell anemia$xPatients$xServices for$zSenegal 606 $aGenetic disorders$xSocial aspects$zSenegal 606 $aKinship$xHealth aspects$zSenegal 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aAfrica. 610 $aAfrican anthropology. 610 $aAfrican genetics. 610 $aAfrican sicklers. 610 $aAlbert Royer Children's Hospital. 610 $aCNTS. 610 $aCentre nationale de transfusion sanguine. 610 $aDNA haplotypes. 610 $aDNA sequences. 610 $aHbAS. 610 $aInternational Organization for the Fight against Sickle Cell. 610 $aNational Blood Transfusion Center. 610 $aOILD. 610 $aRFLP. 610 $aRestriction Fragment Length Polymorphism. 610 $aSenegal. 610 $aSenegalese attitudes. 610 $aSenegalese sickle cell. 610 $aalternative care. 610 $abiological expressions. 610 $abiosocial politics. 610 $aculture. 610 $adisease experiences. 610 $adisease expression. 610 $aeconomic austerity. 610 $aeconomically triaged care. 610 $aethnic population purity. 610 $afagara. 610 $agenetic difference. 610 $agenetic sequence. 610 $ageneticists. 610 $aglobal health problems. 610 $aglobal health. 610 $ahealing practices. 610 $ahealth intervention. 610 $ahealth. 610 $ahealthy sicklers. 610 $aheterozygous sickle cell. 610 $alow-tech strategy. 610 $amultilateral institutions. 610 $anormalization techniques. 610 $apatient advocacy. 610 $apolitical apathy. 610 $apopulation. 610 $apublic health. 610 $apublic neglect. 610 $aself-care. 610 $asickle cell DNA markers. 610 $asickle cell anemia. 610 $asickle cell gene. 610 $asickle cell research. 610 $asickle cell trait. 610 $asicklers. 610 $asocial networks. 610 $atraditional plants. 610 $avitality. 615 0$aSickle cell anemia$xSocial aspects 615 0$aSickle cell anemia$xGenetic aspects. 615 0$aSickle cell anemia$xPatients$xServices for 615 0$aGenetic disorders$xSocial aspects 615 0$aKinship$xHealth aspects 676 $a362.196/15271009663 700 $aFullwiley$b Duana$01031367 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453355503321 996 $aThe enculturated gene$92448709 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03401nam 2200445 450 001 9910822605803321 005 20230802001534.0 010 $a3-8325-9700-X 035 $a(CKB)4340000000242411 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5216740 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5216740 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr11539389 035 $a(OCoLC)1021804480 035 $a58a1c68a-9c48-4d86-8022-3edeb0dd2d03 035 $a(EXLCZ)994340000000242411 100 $a20180522d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aOptimal control of switched systems with application to networked embedded control systems /$fDaniel Go?rges 210 1$aBerlin :$cLogos Verlag,$d[2012] 210 4$d©2012 215 $a1 online resource (206 pages) 225 0 $aForschungsberichte aus dem Lehrstuhl für Regelungssysteme 300 $aPublicationDate: 20120310 311 $a3-8325-3096-7 330 $aLong description: This thesis addresses optimal control of discrete-time switched linear systems with application to networked embedded control systems (NECSs). Part I focuses on optimal control and scheduling of discrete-time switched linear systems. The objective is to simultaneously design a control law and a switching (scheduling) law such that a cost function is minimized. This optimization problem exhibits exponential complexity. Taming the complexity is a major challenge. Two novel methods are presented to approach this optimization problem: Receding-horizon control and scheduling relies on the receding horizon principle. The optimization problem is solved based on relaxed dynamic programming, allowing to reduce complexity by relaxing optimality within predefined bounds. The solution can be expressed as a piecewise linear (PWL) state feedback control law. Stability is addressed via an a priori stability condition based on a terminal weighting matrix and several a posteriori stability criteria based on constructing piecewise quadratic Lyapunov functions and on utilizing the cost function as a candidate Lyapunov function. Moreover, a region-reachability criterion is derived. Periodic control and scheduling relies on periodic control theory. Both offline and online scheduling are studied. The optimization problem is solved based on periodic control and exhaustive search. The online scheduling solution can again be expressed as a PWL state feedback control law. Stability is guaranteed inherently. Several methods are proposed to reduce the online complexity based on relaxation and heuristics. Part II focuses on optimal control and scheduling of NECSs. The NECS is modeled as a block-diagonal discrete-time switched linear system. Various control and scheduling codesign strategies are derived based on the methods from Part I regarding the structural properties of NECSs. The methods presented in Part I and II are finally evaluated in a case study. 606 $aNetworks on a chip$xReliability 615 0$aNetworks on a chip$xReliability. 676 $a621.381531 700 $aGo?rges$b Daniel$01656845 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822605803321 996 $aOptimal control of switched systems with application to networked embedded control systems$94009932 997 $aUNINA
