In controlling biological diseases, it is often more potent to use a combination of agents than using individual ones. However, the number of possible combinations increases exponentially with the number of agents and their concentrations. It is prohibitive to search for effective agent combinations by trial and error as biological systems are complex and their responses to agents are often a slow process. This motivates to build a suitable model to describe the biological systems and help reduce the number of experiments. In this paper, we consider the use of fungicides to inhibit Bipolarismaydis and construct models that describe the responses to fungicide combinations. Three data-driven modeling methods, the polynomial regression, the artificial neural network and the support vector regression, are compared based on the experimental data of the inhibition rates of the southern corn leaf blight with different fungicide combinations. The analysis of the results demonstrates that the support vector regression is best suited to the construction of the response model in terms of achieving better prediction with fewer experiments.

This paper studies semi-global leader-following output consensus of a multi-agent system. Each follower agent in the system, described by a general linear system subject to external disturbances and actuator saturation, is to track the leader agent. Conditions on the agent dynamics are identified under which a low gain feedback based linear state control algorithm is constructed for each follower agent such that the leader-following output consensus is achieved when the communication topology among the agents is a directed graph that contains no loop and the leader is globally reachable. In addition, discussions and simulations are also provided for the output consensus in the presence of actuator saturation.

In order to eliminate the energy waste caused by the traditional static hardware multithreaded processor used in real-time embedded system working in the low workload situation, the energy efficiency of the hardware multithread is discussed and a novel dynamic multithreaded architecture is proposed. The proposed architecture saves the energy wasted by removing idle threads without manipulation on the original architecture, fulfills a seamless switching mechanism which protects active threads and avoids pipeline stall during power mode switching. The report of an implemented dynamic multithreaded processor with 45 nm process from synthesis tool indicates that the area of dynamic multithreaded architecture is only 2.27% higher than the static one in achieving dynamic power dissipation, and consumes 1.3% more power in the same peak performance.

In this paper, a control problem for a class of nonlinear coupled dynamical systems is proposed and a continuous nonlinear feedback control law is designed using direct Lyapunov method to solve the proposed control problem. Moreover, synchronization problem for a special case of this class nonlinear coupled dynamical systems is concerned. Numerical examples show the effectiveness and advantage of the designed continuous nonlinear control law and derived synchronization result.
