The proposed techniques exploit ideas from mixed-integer programming and multiparametric programming. date: 2004 date_type: published publication: IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control volume: 49 number: 5 publisher: IEEE pagerange: 832-838 id_number: 10.1109/TAC.2004.828315 refereed: TRUE issn: 0018-9286 official_url: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=1299020&isnumber=28859 citation: Bemporad, Alberto Efficient conversion of mixed logical dynamical systems into an equivalent piecewise affine form.
