This book addresses a major problem for today's large-scale
networked systems: certification of the required stability and
performance properties using analytical and computational models.
On the basis of illustrative case studies, it demonstrates the
applicability of theoretical methods to biological networks,
vehicle fleets, and Internet congestion control. Rather than tackle
the network as a whole -an approach that severely limits the
ability of existing methods to cope with large numbers of physical
components- the book develops a compositional approach that derives
network-level guarantees from key structural properties of the
components and their interactions. The foundational tool in this
approach is the established dissipativity theory, which is reviewed
in the first chapter and supplemented with modern computational
techniques. The book blends this theory with the authors' recent
research efforts at a level that is accessible to graduate students
and practising engineers familiar with only the most basic
nonlinear systems concepts. Code associated with the numerical
examples can be downloaded at extras.springer.com, allowing readers
to reproduce the examples and become acquainted with the relevant
software.
You won't find poetry like this anywhere else, believe it, I've
looked. Packard's poetry rifles through several different styles of
genre from the dreamy Shakespearean, to the Poe-like macabre. His
poetry has been called, "Grisly and dark without being trite or
clich ." Tony Myles ...has a real command for rhyming language.
This collection of 33 poems has proven once and for all that poetry
is back and alive and well in mid-America. The author hits on such
subjects as the direction our society is heading, gratitude, love,
death, apathy, the afterlife, dogs, domestic violence, hoarding,
old age, and sin. If you are one that doesn't care for poetry, you
will have a new appreciation for it after reading "Meanderings of a
Soul Drenched Mind."
