Autonnomous Controllability of Systems Attaining High Reliability

Attaining High Confidence in Software Reliability Assessment

It is a cruel reality that the goal of producing “perfect software” remains elusive. When software is part of a critical system, it is necessary to estimate the risk associated with its use. Software reliability is defined as the probability of failure free execution given a specific environment and a fixed time interval. The goal of reliability assessment is not just to estimate the failure pr...

ON CONTROLLABILITY AND OBSERVABILITY OF FUZZY CONTROL SYSTEMS

In order to more effectively cope with the real world problems of vagueness, imprecise and subjectivity, fuzzy event systems were proposed recently. In this paper, we investigate the controllability and the observability property of two systems that one of them has fuzzy variables and the other one has fuzzy coefficients and fuzzy variables (fully fuzzy system). Also, sufficient conditions for ...

On Controllability Problems of High-Order Dynamical Multi-Agent Systems

Controllability problemsof dynamical high-order multi-agent systems are concerned. Amethodology on graph topology transformation is proposed, which can help to analyze the controllability. According to this methodology, a path can be regarded as controllability canonical form of graph, and any controllable graph can be transformed into an equivalent path. Besides, controllability of heterogeneo...

ATTAINING HIGH LUMINOSITY IN LINEAR efe- COLLIDERS*

Controllability of excitable systems.

Mathematical models of cell electrical activity typically consist of a current balance equation, channel activation (or inactivation) variables and concentrations of regulatory agents. These models can be thought of as nonlinear filters whose input is some applied current I (possibly zero) and output is a membrane potential V. A natural question to ask is if the applied current I can be deduced...
