Systems of controlled functional differential equations and adaptive tracking
An adaptive servomechanism is developed in the context of the problem of approximate or practical tracking (with prescribed asymptotic accuracy), by the system output, of any admissible reference signal (absolutely continuous and bounded with essentially bounded derivative) for every member of a class of controlled dynamical systems modelled by functional differential equations

Temperature Regulation in Multicore Processors Using Adjustable-Gain Integral Controllers
This paper considers the problem of temperature regulation in multicore
processors by dynamic voltage-frequency scaling. We propose a feedback law that
is based on an integral controller with adjustable gain, designed for fast
tracking convergence in the face of model uncertainties, time-varying plants,
and tight computing-timing constraints. Moreover, unlike prior works we
consider a nonlinear, time-varying plant model that trades off precision for
simple and efficient on-line computations. Cycle-level, full system simulator
implementation and evaluation illustrates fast and accurate tracking of given
temperature reference values, and compares favorably with fixed-gain
controllers.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, IEEE Conference on Control Applications 2015,

Quantum Multiobservable Control
We present deterministic algorithms for the simultaneous control of an
arbitrary number of quantum observables. Unlike optimal control approaches
based on cost function optimization, quantum multiobservable tracking control
(MOTC) is capable of tracking predetermined homotopic trajectories to target
expectation values in the space of multiobservables. The convergence of these
algorithms is facilitated by the favorable critical topology of quantum control
landscapes. Fundamental properties of quantum multiobservable control
landscapes that underlie the efficiency of MOTC, including the multiobservable
controllability Gramian, are introduced. The effects of multiple control
objectives on the structure and complexity of optimal fields are examined. With
minor modifications, the techniques described herein can be applied to general
quantum multiobjective control problems.Comment: To appear in Physical Review
Time-delayed feedback control in astrodynamics
In this paper we present time-delayed feedback control (TDFC) for the purpose of autonomously driving trajectories of nonlinear systems into periodic orbits. As the generation of periodic orbits is a major component of many problems in astodynamics we propose this method as a useful tool in such applications. To motivate the use of this method we apply it to a number of well known problems in the astrodynamics literature. Firstly, TDFC is applied to control in the chaotic attitude motion of an asymmetric satellite in an elliptical orbit. Secondly, we apply TDFC to the problem of maintaining a spacecraft in a periodic orbit about a body with large ellipticity (such as an asteroid) and finally, we apply TDFC to eliminate the drift between two satellites in low Earth orbits to ensure their relative motion is bounded
