Workshop on Decision and Control of Discrete Event Dynamic Systems

提案是一个为期3天的研讨会，由离散事件动力学系统的主要研究人员参加。从知识渊博但没有参与其中的人那里获得评论是不切实际的。DEDS的面积一直在逐步增长。制造系统中的运筹学问题导致了系统理论模型(如马尔可夫决策过程)和更大的应用领域(如通信协议)。运筹学和系统论中几位主要人物的工作现在可以比较，统一的方法综合。讲习班的目标是提供未来面向任务的研究应用，这将使其成为重点；迅速发展的领域使讲习班适时；预算是现实的。鉴于研讨会未来可能对DEDS研究产生的影响，我建议向这项提议提供所要求数额的赠款。

Proposal is for a 3-day Workshop, to be attended by the major researchers in Discrete Event Dynamics Systems. It is impractical to obtain reviews from persons who are knowledgeable but uninvolved. The DEDS area has been gradually growing. Operations research problems in manufacturing systems have led to System Theory models (such as markov decision processes) and larger areas of application (communication protocols, e.g.). The work of several major figures in Operation Research and System Theory can now be compared and unified approaches synthesized. The goal of the Workshop, to provide future mission- oriented research applications, will give it focus; the rapidly developing field makes such a Workshop timely; and the Budget is realistic. In view of the probable future impact of the Workshop on DEDS research, I recommend awarding this proposal a grant in the amount requested.
