Discrete event systems (DES) are dynamic systems in which state changes occur at distinct instants in response to asynchronously generated events. Modelling and control of such systems rely on formal ...

At each sampling time instant, one observes system output and action to form discrete-time rewards. The sampled input-output data are collected along the trajectory of the dynamical system in ...

Hybrid dynamical systems integrate continuous-time evolution with discrete mode transitions, yielding a versatile framework for applications that range from autonomous robotics to biochemical reactors ...

Evolving from simply an IT network, Ethernet has become the dominant network technology linking controllers with SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) and plant-wide information systems.
