An Ion-Sense Engine Fine-Tuner - IEEE Control Systems Magazine

Application of an Optimal Tuner Selection Approach for On-Board Self-Tuning Engine Models

Your Magazine (From the Editor) - Control Systems Magazine, IEEE

Surely, you’ve read in-flight magazines, even when you’ve had work to do. Articles on fascinating subjects such as the science of laughter and the world’s best concierge are hard to resist. But suppose you’d tucked the magazine you’re now reading into the seat pocket in front of you and then inadvertently abandoned it upon reaching your destination. What chain of events might such an oversight ...

IVHS/AHS: driving into the future - IEEE Control Systems Magazine

I tems integration of many emerging technologies to effectively address the needs, both present and future, of the nation’s roadway complex. Here, an introduction to and brief history of IVHS is presented. Then, a more detailed overview of Automated Highway Systems (AHS), the part of IVHS of most interest to control engineers, is given. One focus is on various control issues that must be confro...

${\rm SPICE}^2$: Spatial Processors Interconnected for Concurrent Execution for Accelerating the SPICE Circuit Simulator Using an FPGA

Spatial processing of sparse, irregular floating-point computation using a single FPGA enables up to an order of magnitude speedup (mean 2.8× speedup) over a conventional microprocessor for the SPICE circuit simulator. We decompose SPICE into its three constituent phases: Model-Evaluation, Sparse Matrix-Solve, and Iteration Control and parallelize each phase independently. We exploit data-paral...

Stability of networked control systems - IEEE Control Systems Magazine

IEEE Control Systems Magazine February 2001 Feedback control systems wherein the control loops are closed through a real-time network are called networked control systems (NCSs) [1]-[4]. The defining feature of an NCS is that information (reference input, plant output, control input, etc.) is exchanged using a network among control system components (sensors, controller, actuators, etc.). Fig. ...
