Abstract
A new algorithm for use in the on-line digital computer control of tracking systems is presented and compared with the quadratic programming algorithm. The new algorithm is considered to be better than quadratic programming for on-line control because; 1) it appears to converge faster, 2) the cost function is a monotone function of the iteration number, and 3) the "search" is made within the constraint set.
