Using simulations of glassy systems under steady-state shear, we compare effective temperatures obtained from static linear response with those from time-dependent fluctuation-dissipation relations. Although these two definitions are not…

We theoretically and numerically study the problem of optimal control of large-scale autonomous systems under explicitly adversarial conditions, including probabilistic destruction of agents during the simulation. Large-scale autonomous…

This paper studies optimal switching on and o? of the entire service capacity of an M/M/Infinity queue with holding, running and switching costs where the running costs depend only on whether the system is running or not. The goal is to…

The scheme of online optimization as a feedback controller is widely used to steer the states of a physical system to the optimal solution of a predefined optimization problem. Such methods focus on regulating the physical states to the…

The study of intelligent systems explains behaviour in terms of economic rationality. This results in an optimization principle involving a function or utility, which states that the system will evolve until the configuration of maximum…

The fluctuation-dissipation relation for the classical definition of work is extended to thermally isolated systems, in classical and quantum realms. From this, the optimal work variance is calculated, showing it achieves its minimum…

We consider a 1-machine scheduling problem where the temperature of a job rises during processing, and cools down when not being processed according to given linear heating and cooling rates. No job's temperature is allowed to rise above a…

We consider a type of optimal switching problems with non-uniform execution delays and ramping. Such problems frequently occur in the operation of economical and engineering systems. We first provide a solution to the problem by applying a…

Optimal management of thermal and energy grids with fluctuating demand and prices requires to orchestrate the generation units (GU) among all their operating modes. A hierarchical approach is proposed to control coupled energy nonlinear…
