Partial 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 ...
متن کاملa study on rate making and required reserves determination in reinsurance market: a simulation
reinsurance is widely recognized as an important instrument in the capital management of an insurance company as well as its risk management tool. this thesis is intended to determine premium rates for different types of reinsurance policies. also, given the fact that the reinsurance coverage of every company depends upon its reserves, so different types of reserves and the method of their calc...
Recent Developments in Discrete Event Systems
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 an...
متن کاملMethodology for Discrete Event Modeling/Simulation of Mobile Agent Systems
A mobile agent is an autonomous software agent capable of moving from one computer to another while performing its tasks. We view the agent as a discrete event system in the view of its computation and communication. This paper presents a methodology for modeling and simulation of such a mobile agent system as a discrete event system. The methodology is based on the Mobile Discrete Event System...
متن کاملA case study in synchronous parallel discrete event simulation
This paper considers the suitability of SPED, a synchronous parallel discrete event simulator, for the study of message passing networks. The simulation algorithm is described, and its potential performance is assessed showing that, under some simplifying assumptions, SPED might offer speedups directly proportional to the number of processors used in the simulation. An implementation of SPED in...
