Multirate control with incomplete information over Profibus-DP network

Implementation of Networked Control System using a Profibus-DP Network

As numerous sensors and actuators are used in many automated systems, various industrial networks are adopted for real-time distributed control. In order to take advantages of the networking, however, the network implementation should be carefully designed to satisfy real-time requirements considering network induced delays. This paper presents an implementation scheme of a networked control sy...

Dynamic Network Formation with Incomplete Information

How do networks form and what is their ultimate topology? Most of the literature that addresses these questions assumes complete information: agents know in advance the value of linking to other agents, even with agents they have never met and with whom they have had no previous interaction (direct or indirect). This paper addresses the same questions under what seems to us to be the much more ...

An Efficient Simulator for the Profibus-dp Mac Layer Protocol

The main goal of this paper is to develop an integrated general-purpose simulator for the Profibus MAC layer protocol in order to evaluate the steady-state behavior of this protocol, under a variety of possible operational conditions in a faulty communication channel. This protocol is part of the Profibus-DP system used widely as a standard and popular industrial communication system. This work...

Information in Cournot: Signaling with Incomplete Control

We embed signaling in the classical Cournot model in which several firms sell a homogeneous good. The quality is known to all the firms, but only to some buyers. The quantity-setting firms can manipulate the price to signal quality. Because there is only one price in a market for a homogeneous good, each firm incompletely controls the price-signal through the quantity decision. We characterize ...
