1. Accelerating Convergence of Large-scale Optimization Algorithms
Abstract : Several recent engineering applications in multi-agent systems, communication networks, and machine learning deal with decision problems that can be formulated as optimization problems. For many of these problems, new constraints limit the usefulness of traditional optimization algorithms. READ MORE

2. Distributed Stochastic Programming with Applications to Large-Scale Hydropower Operations
Abstract : Stochastic programming is a subfield of mathematical programming concerned with optimization problems subjected to uncertainty. Many engineering problems with random elements can be accurately modeled as a stochastic program. In particular, decision problems associated with hydropower operations motivate the application of stochastic programming. READ MORE

3. On H-infinity Control and Large-Scale Systems
Abstract : In this thesis, a class of linear time-invariant systems is identified for which a particular type of H-infinity optimal control problem can be solved explicitly. It follows that the synthesized controller can be given on a simple explicit form. READ MORE

4. Large-scale Runoff Generation and Routing : Efficient Parameterisation using High-resolution Topography and Hydrography
Abstract : Water has always had a controlling influence on the earth’s evolution. Understanding and modelling the large-scale hydrological cycle is important for climate prediction and water-resources studies. READ MORE

5. Gradient Methods for Large-Scale and Distributed Linear Quadratic Control
Abstract : This thesis considers methods for synthesis of linear quadratic controllers for large-scale, interconnected systems. Conventional methods that solve the linear quadratic control problem are only applicable to systems with moderate size, due to the rapid increase in both computational time and memory requirements as the system size increases.
