Multi-Agent Systems: Platoon Control and Non-Fragile Quantized
Consensus aims to present recent research results in designing
platoon control and non-fragile quantized consensus for multi-agent
systems. The main feature of this book is that distributed adaptive
sliding mode control (SMC) algorithms are proposed to guarantee
strong string stability based on modified constant time headway
(MCTH) policy. The MCTH policy is used to remove the unrealistic
assumption in the most existing literature that initial spacing,
velocity and acceleration errors are zero. This monograph
investigates the platoon control issue by combining SMC technique
with neural network and fuzzy logic system approximation methods.
This volume comprises twelve papers written by Chinese scholars on
various aspects of the history of ancient Chinese economic thought.
The contributions are preceded by an introduction which gives an
overview of the development of the subject of history of economic
thought in China, and which also provides an historical context to
the individuals who constitute the major "schools" of ancient
Chinese economic thought. The authors of the papers are leading
scholars who have dominated this research area since the founding
of New China in 1949, while the broad range of topics covered by
the contributions includes questions of methodology, detailed and
sometimes controversial interpretations of texts and "schools", and
the international influence and modern relevance of ancient Chinese
thought. A recurrent theme is that ancient Chinese thought has at
least as much to offer to the historian as ancient Western thought.
As the first such volume of papers to be translated into English,
this collection provides a unique opportunity for non-Chinese
readers to sample the way in which Chinese historians of economics
have attempted to understand their own intellectual heritage. This
book will be relevant to scholars interested in the history of
economic thought, economic history and Chinese studies.
This book contains original essays on various aspect of the Han's
political economy and its legacy, written by leading Chinese and
Western scholars whose collective expertise spans Economic History,
History of Economic Thought and Sinology.

Since the publication of the by now classical Johnson and Kotz
Continuous Multivariate Distributions (Wiley, 1972) there have been
substantial developments in multivariate distribution theory
especially in the area of non-normal symmetric multivariate
distributions. The book by Fang, Kotz and Ng summarizes these
developments in a manner which is accessible to a reader with only
limited background (advanced real-analysis calculus, linear algebra
and elementary matrix calculus). Many of the results in this field
are due to Kai-Tai Fang and his associates and appeared in Chinese
publications only. A thorough literature search was conducted and
the book represents the latest work - as of 1988 - in this rapidly
developing field of multivariate distributions. The authors are
experts in statistical distribution theory.

This book reviews and summarizes the development and achievement in
cartography and geographic information engineering in China over
the past 60 years after the founding of the People's Republic of
China. It comprehensively reflects cartography, as a traditional
discipline, has almost the same long history with the world's first
culture and has experienced extraordinary and great changes. The
book consists of nineteen thematic chapters. Each chapter is in
accordance with the unified directory structure, introduction,
development process, major study achievements, problem and
prospect, representative works, as well as a lot of references. It
is useful as a reference both for scientists and technicians who
are engaged in teaching, researching and engineering of cartography
and geographic information engineering.
This book discusses poverty reduction and inclusive development in
China. The relevant research reports included here combine unique
perspectives and thorough analysis, and include both comparative
and empirical analyses. Although China is the first country to have
achieved the UN's Millennium Development Goals, it still faces
enormous problems and challenges in terms of narrowing the income
gap, reducing poverty and attaining sustainable development. This
book not only provides valuable theoretical material to help
readers understand inclusive development and poverty reduction in
today's China, but also offers relevant government authorities a
solid theoretical and practical basis for informed decision-making.
