Quantitative Determination Of Optimal Fiscal And Monetary Policies: A Stochastic Optimal Control Analysis For Iran

Optimal Encoders Maximizing Directed Information of Channels with Memory and Feedback: Stochastic Control and Dynamic Programming

This paper is concerned with the stochastic control formulation of the capacity of channel with memory and feedback. The pay-off is the directed information from the source sequence to the channel output sequence, while the objective is to find the optimal encoder which maximizes this quantity. By invoking a change of measure technique this problem is reformulated in terms of controlling the a ...

Fuzzy Based Optimal Clustering Protocol for Maximizing Lifetime in WSN

In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), the clustering protocol requires the nodes local information like energy level, distance between to BS and node density, link quality and load while estimating the cluster heads to handle network lifetime. In this study, we propose fuzzy based optimal clustering protocol for maximizing lifetime in WSN. Initially, several provisional cluster heads are elected i...

Optimality Of Monetary And Fiscal Policies In Iran: An Application Of The Stochastic Optimal Control Theory

Optimal Stochastic Control in Continuous Time with Wiener Processes: General Results and Applications to Optimal Wildlife Management

We present a stochastic optimal control approach to wildlife management. The objective value is the present value of hunting and meat, reduced by the present value of the costs of plant damages and traffic accidents caused by the wildlife population. First, general optimal control functions and value functions are derived. Then, numerically specified optimal control functions and value func...
