A commonly used model for fault-tolerant computation is that of cellular automata. The essential difficulty of fault-tolerant computation is present in the special case of simply ...
Fuzzy cellular automata (FCA) are continuous cellular automata where the local rule is defined as the “fuzzification" of the local rule of a corresponding Boolean cellula...
Often one has a preference order among the different systems that satisfy a given specification. Under a probabilistic assumption about the possible inputs, such a preference order...

We begin by observing that (discrete-time) QuasiBirth-Death Processes (QBDs) are equivalent, in a precise sense, to (discrete-time) probabilistic 1-Counter Automata (p1CAs), and b...
New technological trends lead to the increasing use of network technologies in automation. Especially the Ethernet with TCP/IP and wireless networks find growing acceptance. The r...
