Computer science subject: TJ Mechanical engineering and machinery description: For continuous-time switched affine systems, this paper proposes an approach for solving infinite-horizon optimal control problems where the decision variables are the switching instants and the sequence of operating modes. The procedure iterates between a "master" procedure that finds an optimal switching sequence of modes, and a "slave" procedure that finds the optimal switching instants. publisher: IEEE date: 2002-12 type: Book Section type: PeerReviewed identifier: Bemporad, Alberto and Giua, Alessandro and Seatzu, Carla A master-slave algorithm for the optimal control of continuous-time switched affine systems.
