This book explores the behavior of networks of electric and hybrid vehicles. The topics that are covered include: energy management issues for aggregates of plug-in vehicles; the design of sharing systems to support electro-mobility; context awareness in the operation of electric and hybrid vehicles, and the role that this plays in a Smart City context; and tools to test and design massively large-scale networks of such vehicles. The book also introduces new and interesting control problems that are becoming prevalent in the EV-PHEV's context, as well as identifying some open questions. A particular focus of the book is on the opportunities afforded by networked actuation possibilities in electric and hybrid vehicles, and the role that such actuation may play in air-quality and emissions management.

This work focuses on the contemporary developments and results in mathematical systems theory and control. The book is written in honour of Diederich Hinrichsen, for his fundamental contributions and achievements in the fields of linear systems theory and control theory, and for his long-term achievements in estabilshing mathematical systems theory in Germany. A key theme of the book is the stability and robustness of linear and nonlinear systems using the concepts of stability radii and spectral value sets. Chapters survey advances in linear and nonlinear systems theory, including parametrizations, problems and behaviours of linear systems, convolutional codes, and complementary and hybrid systems. In addition, the volume examines controllability and stabilization of infinite dimensional systems (allowing for hysteresis nonlinearities) with functional analytic and algebraic approaches.

This self-contained volume surveys advances in mathematical systems theory and control. Fifteen chapters by leading researchers address cross-section of major research directions: hybrid systems theory, robust control and stability of linear and nonlinear systems, parametrization of linear systems and control of infinite dimensional systems. Professionals and researchers in systems and control engineering, applied mathematics, and systems engineering will find the book a useful resource.

This volume contains the lectures presented at the workshop on "Advances in Mathematical Systems Theory," held on the island of Borkum, Germany (April 20-23, 1999). The book will be of interest to graduate students and researchers interested in control theory and mathematical systems theory, who will find in-depth analysis and presentations from diverse perspectives interacting in this lively area. The editors are proud to dedicate this volume to Diederich Hinrichsen on the occasion of his 60th birthday in acknowl- edgment of his major contributions to linear systems theory and control theory and his long-term achievements in establishing mathematical sys- tems theory in Germany. We all owe much to him as a teacher, colleague, and friend. The editors thank the Graduiertenkolleg "Komplexe Dynamische Sys- teme" at the University of Bremen as well as the European "Nonlinear Control Network" for providing financial support that enabled this work- shop.Augsburg, Germany Fritz Colonius Wiirzburg, Germany Uwe Helmke Kaiserslautern, Germany Dieter Pratzel-Wolters Bremen, Germany Fabian Wirth Introduction The workshop "Advances in Mathematical Systems Theory" took place in honor of Diederich Hinrichsen on the occasion of his 60th birthday. The following chapters are based on invited lectures and cover a wide range of topics in linear and nonlinear systems theory including parameteriza- tion problems, behaviors of linear systems and convolutional codes, as well as complementarity systems and hybrid systems.
