    2013-Brian_Winkel-An_Optimal_Control_Model_in_Insect_Colonies
    we find and develop background material on an application of optimal control theory to model the evolutionary strategy of an insect colony to produce the maximum number of queen or reproducer insects in the colony at the end of a season.

    2005-DieboldEtAl-Modeling Bond Yields In Finance And Macroeconomics
    From a macroeconomic perspective, the short-term interest rate is a policy instrument under the direct control of the central bank. From a finance perspective, long rates are risk-adjusted averages of expected future short rates.

    2000-Idels-Wang-Harvesting Fisheries Management Strategies With Modified Effort Function
    This study concludes that a control parameter beta (the magnitude of the effect of the fish population size on the fishing effort function E), changes not only the rate at which the population goes to equilibrium, but also the equilibrium values.
