This paper provides a comprehensive review of vertical heave motion compensation systems used on ocean vessels from the early 1970s up to, and including, modern systems …
Over recent years a significant amount of research has been undertaken to develop prognostic models that can be used to predict the remaining useful life of engineering …
Multi-agent systems arise in several domains of engineering and can be used to solve problems which are difficult for an individual agent to solve. Strategies for team decision …
There has been great interest in" universal controllers" that mimic the functions of human processes to learn about the systems they are controlling on-line so that performance …
The theory of optimal control systems has grown and flourished since the 1960's. Many texts, written on varying levels of sophistication, have been published on the subject. Yet even …
Reliability of prognostics and health management systems relies upon accurate understanding of critical components' degradation process to predict the remaining useful …

In this article, we introduce some recent research trends within the field of adaptive/approximate dynamic programming (ADP), including the variations on the structure …
Nature discovered feedback long ago. It created feedback mechanisms and exploited them at all levels, that are central to homeostasis and life. As a technology, control dates back at …
Convergence of the value-iteration-based heuristic dynamic programming (HDP) algorithm is proven in the case of general nonlinear systems. That is, it is shown that HDP converges …
