This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This work presents recent mathematical methods in the area of optimal control with a particular emphasis on the computational aspects and applications. Optimal control theory concerns the determination of control strategies for complex dynamical systems, in order to optimize some measure of their performance. Started in the 60's under the pressure of the 'space race' between the US and the former USSR, the field now has a far wider scope, and embraces a variety of areas ranging from process control to traffic flow optimization, renewable resources exploitation and management of financial markets. These emerging applications require more and more efficient numerical methods for their solution, a very difficult task due the huge number of variables. The chapters of this volume give an up-to-date presentation of several recent methods in this area including fast dynamic programming algorithms, model predictive control and max-plus techniques.This book is addressed to researchers, graduate students and applied scientists working in the area of control problems, differential games and their applications. 280 pp. Englisch.…

Roberto Ferretti is Associate Professor of Numerical Analysis at Roma Tre University since 2001. He has been an invited professor in UCLA (USA), Universitet Goroda Pereslavlya (Russia), ENSTA-Paristech and IRMA (France), TU Munich (Germany) and UP Madrid (Spain). He has authored a monograph and more than 40 papers on international journals/volumes, in topics ranging from semi-Lagrangian schemes to optimal control, levelset methods, image processing and computational fluid Dynamics.
Lars Grüne is Professor for Applied Mathematics at the University of Bayreuth, Germany. He obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Augsburg in 1996 and his habilitation from Goethe University in Frankfurt/M in 2001. He held visiting positions at the Sapienza in Rome (Italy) and at the University of Newcastle (Australia) and is Editor-in-Chief of the journal Mathematics of Control, Signals and Systems. His research interests lie in the areas of mathematical systems theory and optimal control.
William M. McEneaney received B.S. and M.S. degrees in Mathematics from Rensselaer Polytechnic Inst., followed by M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Applied Mathematics from Brown Univ. He has held academic positions at Carnegie Mellon Univ. and North Carolina State Univ., prior to his current appointment at Univ. of California, San Diego. His non-academic positions have included Jet Propulsion Laboratory and AirForce Office of Scientific Research. His interests include Stochastic Control and Games, Max-Plus Algebraic Numerical Methods, and the Principle of Stationary Action.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to BuchWeltWeit Ludwig Meier e.K., Bergisch Gladbach, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
