| Summary: | This volume can be regarded as a logical extension of works in multilevel hierarchical system theory and multilevel optimization. It develops a new, `non-iterative', coordination strategy, which is generally relevant for on-line management of distributed and multilevel systems. This new coordination strategy extends the possibilities of the multilevel methodology from traditional off-line applications like systems design, planning, optimal problem solution, and off-line resources allocation to on-line processes like real time control, system management, on-line optimization and decision making. The main benefit of non-iterative coordination is the reduced information transfer between the hierarchical levels. Applications in transportation systems, data transmissions and optimal solution of nonconvex mathematical programming problems are given. Audience: This book will be of interest to researchers, postgraduate students and specialists in systems optimization, operational researchers, system designers, management scientists, control engineers and mathematicians of the aspects of optimization. |
