Approximate Dynamic Programming Based Control of Proppant Concentration in Hydraulic Fracturing

Model-Based Closed-Loop Control of the Hydraulic Fracturing Process

Admission Control in UMTS Networks based on Approximate Dynamic Programming

This paper presents a Connection Admission Control (CAC) algorithm for Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) networks based on an Approximate Dynamic Programming (ADP) approach. To deal with the non-stationary environment due to the timevarying statistical characteristics of the offered traffic, the admission policy has to be computed periodically based on on-line measurements. If s...

Approximate Dynamic Programming for Ship Course Control

Dynamic programming (DP) is a useful tool for solving many control problems, but for its complexity in computation, traditional DP control algorithms are not satisfactory in fact. So we must look for a new method which not only has the advantages of DP but also is easier in computation. In this paper, approximate dynamic programming (ADP) based controller system has been used to solve a ship he...
