To Control or Not Control: A Coordination Perspective to Scaling [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2010 The question of how social initiatives can effectively scale their impact to reach individuals and communities that benefit from their innovations has received increasing attention over the past few years. A number of scholars adopt a strategic perspective and investigate the mechanisms to scale social organizations (Bradach, 2003; Oster, 1996), while ...

Any complex operation requires a system for management. In most societies, disaster management is the responsibility of the government. Coordination and control is a system that provides the oversight for all of the disaster management functions. The roles and responsibilities of a coordination and control centre include: (1) planning; (2) maintenance ...

The coordinate system for force control
Experimental Brain Research, 2014The primary objective of this study was to establish the coordinate frame for force control by observing how parameters of force that are not explicitly specified by a motor task vary across the workspace. We asked subjects to apply a force of a specific magnitude with their hand.

Geographically coordinated frequency control
2017 IEEE 56th Annual Conference on Decision and Control (CDC), 2017Primary Frequency Control (PFC) is a fast acting mechanism used to ensure high-quality power for the grid that is becoming an increasingly attractive option for load participation. Because of the speed requirement, PFC requires distributed control laws to be used instead of a more centralized design.

Coordinated control and information architecture
42nd IEEE International Conference on Decision and Control (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37475), 2004Coordinated control of vehicle formations is the motivating problem. The key idea is the use of Model Predictive Control (MPC) as a localized control law to connect the overall formation control performance and the inter-vehicle communication quality. The working problem is a simple 1-D vehicle formation with noisy channels.

As the environments and situations change frequently, extensively and in an unpredictable manner, engineering is quickly shifting from control-based to coordination-focused. In control, we can apply rational approaches in a straightforward manner and the goal is clear from the first.

Coordinated control of blending systems
IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, 1998Blending is an important unit operation in chemical process industries. Based on Luyben's work (1990), a coordinated control is proposed to overcome the system interaction and process nonlinearity in blending processes. Blending systems with ideal and nonideal mixing are explored.

Relative observability in coordination control
2015 IEEE International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE), 2015Relative observability was introduced and studied in the framework of partially observed discrete-event systems as a condition stronger than observability and weaker than normality. Unlike observability, relative observability is closed under language unions, which makes it interesting for practical applications.

Coordination and control of multimedia conferencing
IEEE Communications Magazine, 1992It is shown that multimedia, multipoint conferencing systems create important requirements for the networks they use to transmit information among conference participants. These requirements, which stem from the need for conferencing systems to emulate the richness of control present in face-to-face conversations, may extend from the user interface to ...
