Free Download Fault-Tolerant Cooperative Control of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
English | 2024 | ISBN: 981997660X | 382 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 33 MB
This book focuses on the fault-tolerant cooperative control (FTCC) of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (multi-UAVs). It provides systematic and comprehensive descriptions of FTCC issues in multi-UAVs concerning faults, external disturbances, strongly unknown nonlinearities, and input saturation. Further, it addresses FTCC design from longitudinal motions to attitude motions, and outer-loop position motions of multi-UAVs. The book’s detailed control schemes can be used to enhance the flight safety of multi-UAVs.

Free Download Cooperative Operation Optimization for Port Groups: Based on China’s Practice by Bo Lu
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 341 Pages | ISBN : 981995276X | 26.2 MB
This book focuses on port collaborative operation, an important emerging topic in the port and shipping industry, and deeply analyzes the high-quality collaborative mechanism of port groups from the perspectives of port groups’ supply chain cooperative operation mechanism, port groups’ logistics network optimization, port groups’ collaborative scheduling optimization of resources, etc. Based on the combination of qualitative and quantitative analysis on China’s cases, this book makes comprehensive use of game theory, network optimization, multi-dimensional resource cooperative scheduling optimization, and other theories and methods, and promotes the update and innovation of current research methods in related research areas. The feasible policy insights for optimization of port groups’ collaborative operation are suggested at the end of book, which will help with the improvement of economic, environmental, and social benefits of port groups, and promote the port industry’s innovation, upgrading, and transformation.

In the world of information technology, it is no longer the computer in the classical sense where the majority of IT applications is executed; computing is everywhere. More than 20 billion processors have already been fabricated and the majority of them can be assumed to still be operational. At the same time, virtually every PC worldwide is connected via the Internet. This combination of traditional and embedded computing creates an artifact of a complexity, heterogeneity, and volatility unmanageable by classical means. Each of our technical artifacts with a built-in processor can be seen as a ”Thing that Thinks", a term introduced by MIT’s Thinglab. It can be expected that in the near future these billions of Things that Think will become an ”Internet of Things", a term originating from ETH Zurich. This means that we will be constantly surrounded by a virtual "organism" of Things that Think. This organism needs novel, adequate design, evolution, and management means which is also one of the core challenges addressed by the recent German priority research program on Organic Computing.

Free Download The Cooperative Neuron: Cellular Foundations of Mental Life by William A. Phillips
English | July 20, 2023 | ISBN: 019887698X | 384 pages | PDF | 9.38 Mb
The Cooperative Neuron is part of a revolution that is occurring in the sciences of brain and mind. It explores the new field of cellular psychology, a field built upon the recent discovery that many neurons in the brain cooperate to seek agreement in deciding what’s relevant in the current context. This cooperative context-sensitivity provides the cellular foundations for knowledge, doubt, imagination, self-development, and the search for purpose in life. This emerging field has far-reaching and fundamental implications for psychology, neuroscience, psychiatry, neurology, and the philosophy of mind.
