An event space is a set of instantaneous events that vary both in time and specificity. The concept of an event space provides a foundation for a logical--i.e., modular and open-a...
Genetic algorithms are adaptive methods based on natural evolution that may be used for search and optimization problems. They process a population of search space solutions with t...
For discrete event systems, modular supervisory control refers to modular design of a supervisor when multiple control specifications are given. This problem has been studied for ...
