Maturity-independent risk measures
The new notion of maturity-independent risk measures is introduced and contrasted with the existing risk measurement concepts. It is shown, by means of two examples, one set on a ļ...

MDLn: A Motion Description Language for networked systems
ā€” In this paper we extend the deļ¬nition of a Motion Description Language (MDL) to networked systems. This new construction (MDLn) supports inter-agent speciļ¬cation rules as w...

Rate of Convergence for Consensus with Delays
ā€” We study the problem of reaching a consensus in the values of a distributed system of agents with time-varying connectivity in the presence of delays. We consider a widely stud...

Robust invariant set theory applied to networked buffer-level control
ā€” A manufacturer producing several items keeps them into safety stocks (buffers) in order to supply an external stochastic demand without interruptions. We consider the classical...
