This paper addresses networking and traffic control problems in network systems along with the potential for introducing soft-computing applications at supervisory control level. The incentive Stackelberg strategy control concept was introduced to the networking model that comprises subsidiary systems of users and of network. A linear strategy is proposed for the elastic traffic problem, and results are demonstrated and illustrated via Kelly's (1997) example. The presented method is extended to the non-elastic traffic problem and results are also illustrated via a slightly modified Kelly example. Ways of employing combined analytical and soft-computing approaches and techniques in a hybrid framework have been investigated. A fuzzy-Petri-net supervisor is proposed to implement the strategic decision and control layer. Insofar obtained results are rather encouraging, and this research continues further towards possible implementation as well as some open theoretical issues.

The problem of the pricing equilibrium in multi-service priority-based networks isstudied by using Stackelberg game theory. Some concepts of the game theory were revisited first. Then, the existing results on two-user, twolevel Nash problem was reviewed briefly. Following this background, a new one-leader, two-level, two-user incentive Stackelberg strategy was derived and proved by employing the time delay involved.

In this paper the output-tracking problem of a class of composite nonlinear systems is studied. Composite system can be represented solely by models on the grounds of its inputs and measurable outputs. It is assumed that (i) the plant system belongs to aclass of composite non linear systems, and that the fuzzy logic control system applied can efficiently use adjustable parameters to approximate its non linear system function. The new theorem guarantees the synthesized indirect fuzzy adaptive control does ensure stable output tracking and possesses the ability to reduce the number of fuzzy rules.

A neuro controller for high precision manoeuvring of underwater vehicles require special attention to a number of factors including thruster and vehicle’s nonlinearities, couplings which exist between various degrees of freedom as well as effects of the sea currents. The neuro control system for underwater vehicle maneouvring described here is based on the conventional controller supported with the so called adaptive neural network.

In this paper we consider the fault isolation problem for the linear time varying systems. Our approach is based on characterization of the observability of LTV systems by Kalman's rank condition, which permits us to design fault detection filters, feeding also the derivatives of the inputs and the outputs. We prove, using a computable method, that the isolation problem can be solved by generalized Luenberger's observer if and only if the detectability and the weak separability of fault signatures holds.

A prototype concurrent engineering tool has been developed for the preliminary design of composite topside structures for modern navy warships. This tool, named GELS for the Concurrent Engineering of Layered Structures, provides designers with an immediate assessment of the impacts of their decisions on several disciplines which are important to the performance of a modern naval topside structure, including electromagnetic interference effects (EMI), radar cross section (RCS), structural integrity, cost, and weight. Preliminary analysis modules in each of these disciplines are integrated to operate from a common set of design variables and a common materials database. Performance in each discipline and an overall fitness function for the concept are then evaluated. A graphical user interface (GUI) is used to define requirements and to display the results from the technical analysis modules. Optimization techniques, including feasible sequential quadratic programming (FSQP) and exhaustive search are used to modify the design variables to satisfy all requirements simultaneously. The development of this tool, the technical modules, and their integration are discussed noting the decisions and compromises required to develop and integrate the modules into a prototype conceptual design tool.

This book presents the outcomes of the 7th International Conference in Methodologies and Intelligent Systems for Technology Enhanced Learning (MIS4TEL'17), hosted by the Polytechnic of Porto, Portugal from 21 to 23 June 2017. Expanding on the topics of the previous conferences, it provided an open forum for discussing intelligent systems for technology enhanced learning (TEL) and their roots in novel learning theories, empirical methodologies for their design or evaluation, stand-alone and web-based solutions, and makerspaces. It also fostered entrepreneurship and business startup ideas, bringing together researchers and developers from industry, education and the academic world to report on the latest scientific research, technical advances and methodologies.
