This paper deals with the optimal control of a class of positive switched systems. The main
feature of this class is that switching alters only the diagonal entries of the dynamic matrix …

In this monograph we consider the class of continuous-time positive switched systems. We
discuss several problems, including stability, performance analysis, stabilization via …

In this paper we address the problem of optimal switching for switched linear systems. The
uniqueness of our approach lies in describing the switching action by multiple control inputs …

This paper has been motivated by the problem of viral mutation in HIV infection. Under
simplifying assumptions, viral mutation treatment dynamics can be viewed as a positive …

This paper successfully addresses an important class of hybrid optimal control problems of
practical significance. It provides a viable general approach to hybrid optimal control based …

In optimal control problems of switched systems, we may need to find both an optimal
continuous input and an optimal switching sequence since the system dynamics vary before …

This paper considers a class of control problems where there is a need to find switching-
sequences between different linear systems, as well as linear control laws, to minimize …

This paper provides a viable general approach to switched systems optimal control. Such
optimal control problems require the solutions of not only optimal continuous inputs but also …

This paper presents an approach for solving optimal control problems of switched systems.
In general, in such problems one needs to find both optimal continuous inputs and optimal …

Optimal control problems for switched nonlinear systems are investigated. We propose an
alternative approach for solving the optimal control problem for a nonlinear switched system …
