Recent Developments in Discrete Event Systems
author
Abstract:
This article is a brief exposure of the process approach to a newly emerging area called "discrete event systems" in control theory and summarizes some of the recent developments in this area. Discrete event systems is an area of research that is developing within the interstices of computer, control and communication sciences. The basic direction of research addresses issues in the analysis and design of distributed intelligent systems operating within real time constraints. The article focuses on the concepts of an algebraic process approach and formulates supervisory control problems in this framework.

Decentralized prognosis of fuzzy discrete-event systems
This paper gives a decentralized approach to the problem of failure prognosis in the framework of fuzzy discrete event systems (FDES). A notion of co-predictability is formalized for decentralized prognosis of FDESs, where several local agents with fuzzy observability rather than crisp observability are used in the prognosis task. An FDES is said to be co-predictable if each faulty event can be...
full textPartial Observation in Distributed Supervisory Control of Discrete-Event Systems
Distributed supervisory control is a method to synthesize local controllers in discrete-eventsystems with a systematic observation of the plant. Some works were reported on extending this methodby which local controllers are constructed so that observation properties are preserved from monolithic todistributed supervisory control, in an up-down approach. In this paper, we find circumstances in ...
full textRecent Developments in Discrete Torsion
In this short article we briefly review some recent developments in understanding discrete torsion. Specifically, we give a short overview of the highlights of a group of recent papers which give the basic understanding of discrete torsion. Briefly, those papers observe that discrete torsion can be completely understand simply as the choice of action of the orbifold group on the B field. We sum...
full textSpecial issue on recent trends in discrete event systems
This special issue of DEDS on Recent Trends in Discrete Event Systems was inspired by the 10th International Workshop on Discrete Event Systems (WODES 2010), which was held on the campus of Technische Universität Berlin from 30 August to 1 September 2010. The Workshop Series on Discrete Event Systems started in 1992. Since then workshops have been held every two years: in Prague (1992), Antibes...
full textPhytoestrogens: recent developments
Phytoestrogens are polyphenolic non-steroidal plant compounds with estrogen like activity exerted through estrogen receptors. These receptors are distributed in several tissues such as male and female reproductive systems, bones, cardiovascular and central nervous systems. These natural phenolic compounds include isoflavonoids, flavonoids, lignans and stilbenes. Isoflavonoids are the most studi...

tem point of view, was 1950. On the earliest digital computers, each user’s job ran separately and had exclusive use of the computer for the duration of the program. The program communicated with I/O devices and managed other resources without assistance. When the program completed, an operator halted the computer and manually prepared the next job. The mid1950s saw the dawn of batch processing...
