This unified self-contained volume is a collection of invited articles on topics presented at the Symposium on Systems, Control, and Networks, held in Berkeley June 5-7, 2005, in honor of Pravin Varaiya on his 65th birthday. Varaiya is an eminent faculty member of the University of California at Berkeley and an expert in the fields of communication systems, hierarchical control, hybrid systems, power systems, sensor networks, and transportation systems. The chapters include recent results and surveys of topics that reflect many of the research interests of Varaiya, including: * hybrid systems and stochastic systems * systems engineering education and design * automated highway systems and transportation science * various aspects of networks Advances in Systems, Control and, Networks will serve as an excellent resource for engineers, applied mathematicians, and graduate students working in interrelated fields of systems, control, and networks.
