This paper describes a criterion for qualitative analysis of open Chemical Reaction Networks endowed with mass-action kinetics. The method can be applied to an extremely broad clas...
Output-based feedback control of discrete-time hybrid systems is an important problem, as in practice it is rarely the case that the full state variable is available for feedback. ...

Abstract-- The aim of this paper is to address left invertibility for dynamical systems with inputs and outputs in discrete sets. We study systems that evolve in discrete time with...
Abstract-- This paper introduces a global uncertainty propagation scheme for the attitude dynamics of a rigid body, through a combination of numerical parametric uncertainty techni...
We develop non-smooth motion controllers that enable redundant manipulators to perform surface tasks, that involve force/torque interactions. The robot joint rates are constrained ...
The paper deals with the problem of reconstructing the tree-like topological structure of a network of linear dynamical systems. A distance function is defined in order to evaluat...
Abstract-- In this paper we study different distributed estimation schemes for stochastic discrete time linear systems where the communication between the sensors and the estimatio...
This work outlines two approaches for small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) performing surveillance with fixed cameras. Small UAVs present significant control challenges, due to re...

Linear matrix Inequalities (LMIs) have had a major impact on control but formulating a problem as an LMI is an art. Recently there is the beginnings of a theory of which problems ...
