For his work in the economics of climate change, Professor William Nordhaus was a co-recipient of the 2018 Nobel Memorial Prize for Economic Sciences. A core component of the work undertaken by Nordhaus is the Dynamic Integrated model of Climate and Economy, known as the DICE model. The DICE model is a discrete-time model with two control inputs and is primarily used in conjunction with a particular optimal control problem in order to estimate optimal pathways for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. In this paper, we provide a tutorial introduction to the DICE model and we indicate challenges and open problems of potential interest for the systems and control community.
This article treats two problems dealing with control of linear systems in the presence of a jammer that can sporadically turn off the control signal. The first problem treats the standard reachability problem, and the second treats the standard line
We prove the continuity of the value function of the sparse optimal control problem. The sparse optimal control is a control whose support is minimum among all admissible controls. Under the normality assumption, it is known that a sparse optimal con
The paper studies approximations and control of a processor sharing (PS) server where the service rate depends on the number of jobs occupying the server. The control of such a system is implemented by imposing a limit on the number of jobs that can
Flexible loads, e.g. thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs), are technically feasible to participate in demand response (DR) programs. On the other hand, there is a number of challenges that need to be resolved before it can be implemented in pract
This paper studies the problem of decentralized measurement feedback stabilization of nonlinear interconnected systems. As a natural extension of the recent development on control vector Lyapunov functions, the notion of output control vector Lyapuno
