A control methodology for asynchronous sequential machines is addressed in this paper. The considered machine consists of a number of input/state asynchronous machines, termed submachines, between which asynchronous switching is conducted by the switching signal. The control objective is to design a corrective controller so that the stable-state behavior of the closed-loop system can mimic a re...

It not only handles software problems but also provides quantitative feedback important for assessing product quality, crucial for continuous process analysis and improvement and essential for defect prevention. Chapter 2 gives a detailed description of the problem management process and its constituent phases, activiti...
