Review text

The monograph discusses scientific research directed towards hierarchical system theory. It presents new theoretical results related to a new coordination strategy called ``noniterative coordination. The theoretical background of this coordination is developed. Several practical implementations like traffic lights optimization, optimal data communications and others are given. The book is divided into four chapters. The first one gives a general setting of the coordination in two-level hierarchical system. The second chapter presents the noniterative coordination methodology. Heuristic assumptions are explained which allow decreasing the coordination computation up to a single iteration. A formal description of the noniterative coordination is given. The third part presents the linear-quadratic modeling and the last chapter discusses mathematical models of noniterative coordination applying Padé functions. These models extend the feasible area of applications of noniterative coordination. Examples are given for solutions of nonlinear optimization problems.
