Individual functional requirements represent fragments of behavior, while a design that satisfies a set of functional requirements represents integrated behavior. This perspective ...
This paper describes how decentralized control theory can be used to analyze the control of multiple cooperative robotic vehicles. Models of cooperation are discussed and related t...
Many industrial applications with real-time demands are composed of mixed sets of tasks with a variety of requirements. These can be in the form of standard timing constraints, su...
— We discuss a framework for defining physical open systems on higher-dimensional complexes. We start with the formalization of the dynamics of open electrical circuits and the ...
Abstract—The excellent bit error rate performance of new iterative decoding algorithms (e.g., turbodecoding) is achieved at the expense of a computationally burdensome decoding p...
