Abstract We consider the problem of moving the system state between different equilibrium points. For systems whose linearizations are exponentially stable along a curve connecting the given points we show that the tr...

State-of-the-art, uni-processor linear matrix equation solvers for automatic control computations are investigated and compared for various problem sizes. Generalpurpose SLICOT solvers are the most efficient ones for small-size problems, but they cannot compete for larger problems with specialized solvers designed for certain problem classes.

In this brief note we provide a new analysis of the transient behavior of the clear-a-fraction policy of Perkins and Kumar. In addition, we show that a new “clear-average-oldest-buffer” policy and a “random part selection” policy (of which “first-come-first-served” is a special case) are stable. Finally, we introduce a stable and efficient “stream modifier” that can be used to obtain network le...

This paper presents a design and hardware implementation of a CMOS sensor based video camera incorporating a module, which combines the functions of automatic white balancing (A WB) and automatic exposure control (AEC). The finctionaliQ is achieved using dynamic control of sensor registers using I2C sensor interface. The image data processing is performed using a field programmable gate array (...
