the efficiency and robustness of reliability methods are two important factors in first order reliability method (form). the conjugate choice control (ccc) and directional chaos control method (dcc) were developed to improve the robustness and efficiency of form formula using the stability transformation method. in this paper, the ccc and dcc methods are applied for reliability analysis of a co...

In this paper, an information theoretic approach is applied to analyze the performance of a decentralized control system. The control system plays the role of a correcting device which decreases the uncertainties associated with state variables of a production line by applying an appropriate ``correcting signal'' for each deviation from the target. In particular, a distributed feedback control ...

Control-Flow Integrity (CFI), as a means to prevent control-flow hijacking attacks, enforces that each instruction transfers control to an address in a set of valid targets. The security guarantee of CFI thus depends on the definition of valid targets, which conventionally are defined as the result of a static analysis. Unfortunately, previous research has demonstrated that such a definition, a...

The control system for stabilizing the lateral motion at landing the aerospace plane (ASP) onto moving ekranoplane is developed. As the disturbances character applied to ASP are being changed at different weather conditions, the system analysis and synthesis are made in a wide class of disturbances. This class may be represented by some numerical characteristics – the upper bounds of derivative...

one priority of planning at the regional level is to recognize the system of residence and particularly its urban system. one of the features of urban system in each area or country is the way of population distribution between the cities of these areas which is called city distribution size. in functional analysis of mazandaran province 41 development indexes of educational, cultural, social, ...

in methods presented to calculate the voltage collapse point, the transmission system is usually the only part of the power system that is completely modeled. distribution systems are often replaced by aggregate load models because the use of the detailed model of distribution systems in voltage stability analysis not only increases the computation time, but also decreases the probability of co...
