AAE Professor Martin Corless has book published

School of Aeronautics and Astronautics Professor Martin Corless has co-authored the book “AIMD Dynamics and Distributed Resource Allocation.” Published by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, it is the "first comprehensive book on the AIMD algorithm, the most widely used method for allocating a limited resource among competing agents without centralized control." The book describes the basic and fundamental properties of the algorithm, offers examples to illustrate the richness of the resulting dynamical systems, and provides applications to illustrate ways the algorithm can be used in the context of smart cities, intelligent transportation systems, and the smart grid.

Dr. Corless's research focuses on obtaining tools which are useful in the analysis and control of systems containing significant uncertainty, with the major application of this research being in the analysis and control of aerospace and mechanical systems.
