Control of convex-monotone systems

We define the notion of convex-monotone system and prove that for such systems the state trajectory x(⋅) is a convex function of the initial state x(0) and the input trajectory u(⋅). This observation gives a useful class of nonlinear dynamical systems for which control design can be performed by convex optimization. Applications to evolutionary dynamics of diseases and voltage stability in power n

Separation of biomolecules using Open-Loop Non-Isocratic Simulated moving bed (SMB) technology

Popular Abstract in English In biotechnological industries, downstream processing is a bottleneck in the complete production process. There is a wish to reduce the costs and therefore one tries to operate separation technology in continuous mode. Conventional SMB is a continuous countercurrent separation process, which is based on mathematical modeling and simulation studies for separation of binIn biotechnological industries, downstream processing is a bottleneck in the complete production process. There is a wish to reduce the costs and therefore one tries to operate separation technology in continuous mode. Conventional SMB is a continuous countercurrent separation process, which is based on mathematical modeling and simulation studies for separation of binary mixtures of components.

A comparative study of scheduling techniques for multimedia applications on SIMD pipelines

Parallel architectures are essential in order to take advantage of the parallelism inherent in streaming applications. One particular branch of these employ hardware SIMD pipelines. In this paper, we analyse several scheduling techniques, namely ad hoc overlapped execution, modulo scheduling and modulo scheduling with unrolling, all of which aim to efficiently utilize the special architecture desi

Fitness in common buzzards at the cross-point of opposite melanin-parasite interactions

Melanin is one of the major pigments of vertebrates and has many suggested functions. Although it is supposed to have an antipathogenic effect, its relationship to infection with ecto- and endoparasites largely remains to be examined. The common buzzard Buteo buteo occurs in three eumelanin morphs which differ in their lifetime reproductive success. We examined the distribution of the blood-suckin
