Control and scheduling in a two-station queueing network: Optimal policies and heuristics

Consider a two-station queueing network with two types of jobs: type 1 jobs visit station 1 only, while type 2 jobs visit both stations in sequence. Each station has a single server. Arrival and service processes are modeled as counting processes with controllable stochastic intensities. The problem is to control the arrival and service processes, and in particular to schedule the server in station 1 among the two job types, in order to minimize a discounted cost function over an infinite time horizon. Using a stochastic intensity control approach, we establish the optimality of a specific stationary policy, and show that its value function satisfies certain properties, which lead to a switching-curve structure. We further classify the problem into six parametric cases. Based on the structural properties of the stationary policy, we establish the optimality of some simple priority rules for three of the six cases, and develop heuristic policies for the other three cases.     

Effects of pollution restrictions on dynamic investment policy of a firm

The purpose of this paper is to determine the effects of different pollution standards on the firm's resource allocation decisions. To do so, a dynamic model of the firm is developed in which it is assumed that production causes pollution as an inevitable byproduct. Concerning its investment policy, we suppose that the firm can choose between investing in productive capital goods and investing in abatement efforts.It is shown that, in some cases, future abatement expenses have a negative impact on the present level of productive investment, even if the pollution standard is not binding at the moment. This implies a really dynamic optimal investment policy for the firm, which cannot be obtained within a comparative static analysis.This research has been made possible by a fellowship of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Effective learning in the presence of adaptive counterparts

Adaptive learning algorithms (ALAs) is an important class of agents that learn the utilities of their strategies jointly with the maintenance of the beliefs about their counterparts' future actions. In this paper, we propose an approach of learning in the presence of adaptive counterparts. Our Q-learning based algorithm, called Adaptive Dynamics Learner (ADL), assigns Q-values to the fixed-length interaction histories. This makes it capable of exploiting the strategy update dynamics of the adaptive learners. By so doing, ADL usually obtains higher utilities than those of equilibrium solutions. We tested our algorithm on a substantial representative set of the most known and demonstrative matrix games. We observed that ADL is highly effective in the presence of such ALAs as Adaptive Play Q-learning, Infinitesimal Gradient Ascent, Policy Hill-Climbing and Fictitious Play Q-learning. Further, in self-play ADL usually converges to a Pareto efficient average utility.     

Control of a class of underactuated mechanical systems

In this paper a new control methodology for underactuated mechanical systems is proposed. The basic idea of this method is to combine passive velocity field control with decoupling vector field. In order that the underactuated mechanical systems can be stabilized at the desired position after settling on the desired velocity vector field, novel control strategies are proposed. Proposed control strategies are applied to the underactuated planar three-link manipulator and underactuated planar body. Simulations demonstrate the usefulness and effectiveness of the proposed control methodology.

Robust control problems for the multilayer quasi-geostrophic system

In this article, we study some robust control problems associated with the multilayer quasi-geostrophic equations of the ocean and related to data assimilation in oceanography. We consider higher norms (compared to [T. Tachim Medjo, Robust control problems associated with the multilayer quasi-geostrophic equations of the ocean, Appl. Math. Optim. 51(3) (2005) 333–360]) in the definition of the cost functionals. We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions. The result relies on better a priori estimates on the solutions to the multilayer quasi-geostrophic system obtained using a new formulation that we introduce for the multilayer quasi-geostrophic equation of the ocean. The new formulation replaces the non-homogenous boundary conditions (and the non-local constraint) on the stream-function by a simple homogenous Dirichlet boundary condition.     

Optimal birth control of age-dependent competitive species : II. Free horizon problems

We study optimal birth policies for two age-dependent populations in a competing system, which is controlled by fertilities. New results on problems with free final time and integral phase constraints are presented, and the approximate controllability of system is discussed.     

Development of Super-Synchronization Speed Control Assembly in Two 80 MVA Motor Generators of HL-2A Tokamak

The power of the toroidal field （TF） coil in HL-2A is supplied with two 80 MVA motor generators （MGs） together through a diode rectifier. The TF system is designed to obtain the parameters as follows： the highest toroidal filed of 2.8 T, the biggest coil current of 45 kA, the fiat top time of 3-5 s. So the released energy of each MG set for one pulse discharge mast be more than 500 MJ.     

Noninvertibility and the structure of basins of attraction in a model adaptive control system

Summary We present a two-dimensional, nonlinear map, arising from a simple adaptive control problem, which exhibits disconnected boundaries separating the basins of attraction of its coexisting attractors. We perform a detailed study of the relation between this phenomenon and the noninvertible nature of the map and demonstrate how the complex basin structure is caused by a change in the number of preimages of points along a stable manifold.
