Delay compensation in packet-switching networked controlled systems
Abstract— In this paper, we consider the problem of stabilizing sufficiently smooth nonlinear time-invariant plants over a network whereby feedback is closed through a limitedba...

Networked control systems with packet delays and losses
— We investigate the effect of packet delays and packet drops on networked control systems. First we consider the problem of where to locate a controller or state estimator in a...

Dynamic vehicle routing with heterogeneous demands
— In this paper we study a variation of the Dynamic Traveling Repairperson Problem (DTRP) in which there are two classes of demands; high priority, and low priority. In the probl...

Optimal dynamic sleep time control in Wireless Sensor Networks
— We present a dynamic optimization approach to save energy in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) at the link level. One of the main sources of energy waste in a WSN is idle listenin...
