Introduction to Feedback Control

25 Jun



by Li Qiu & Kemin Zhou

The development of modern optimal and robust control of theory in the last 30 years calls for a significant change in the teaching of classical control. It is the author’s goal to integrate the modern optimal and robust control theory in to the classical control theory using tools already available from the context of classical control.

This book represents the author’s first attempt towards this challenging goal. The book includes a significant portion of the well-known classical control material, albeit with some twists and extensions whenever appropriate in consideration of recent development and the available modern computational tools. There is significant coverage on some nontraditional topics such as

  • two-degree-of-freedom control
  • kharitonov robust stability result of polynomials
  • performance limitations due to non-minimum phase zeros
  • overshoot and undershoot and their relation with poles/zeros locations
  • routh table method for computing 2-norm
  • visualizing frequency responses from the Riemann sphere
  • modern optimal and robust control using classical tools

Winning the War for Talent in Emerging Markets: Why Women Are the Solution

13 Jan



by Sylvia Ann Hewlett, Ripa Rashid

The war for talent is heating up in emerging markets. Without enough “brain power,” multinationals can’t succeed in these markets. Yet they’re approaching the war in the wrong way—bringing in expats and engaging in bidding wars for hotshot local “male” managers.

The solution is hiding in plain sight: the millions of highly educated women surging into the labor markets of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and the United Arab Emirates. Increasingly, these women boast better credentials, higher ambitions, and greater loyalty than their male peers. Yet their talents remain untapped.

The catch? attracting and retaining these educated and ambitious women requires different strategies than those used in mature markets In this must-read new book, authors nuanced analysis of this highly qualified workforce in the developing world-and show how it can help you win in these critical markets.
