A method for improving the efficiency of the goal coordination algorithm for large scale dynamical systems with state variable coupling

Abstract In this paper a new approach is suggested which enables one to avoid singularities in the goal coordination method for systems with state variable coupling. This makes the method of practical utility for the control of large dynamical systems. The new approach has the additional advantage of reducing the subproblem computations considerably. The method is illustrated on two classical examples, one which is linear and the other, non-linear.
