متن کاملPATH-FOLLOWING OR REFERENCE-TRACKING? An answer relaxing the limits to performance
In path-following the control objective is to force the output to follow a geometric path without a timing law assigned to it. We highlight a fundamental difference between the path-following and the standard reference-tracking by demonstrating that performance limitation due to unstable zero-dynamics can be removed in the path-following problem.

Introduction. The aim of this article is to use probabilistic ideas to study predictive reasoning based on hypotheses and models, but without using Ito calculus, without writing any stochastic differential equations, in fact without writing any formulas at all. The aim is to extract from the study of stochastic processes those qualitative traits that have significant philosophical implications ...

This editorial is a follow-up to a 1994 editorial 1 by the same authors with the same title. The 1994 editorial emphasized that revised national standards, which relaxed the maximum allowable current that may be delivered to patients by electromedical equipment, presented unnecessary hazards to patients with indwelling catheters, and it described the need to obtain more scientifically based dat...
