In this paper, a reconfigurable control strategy is proposed for state synchronization and tracking control of networked (electro-) mechanical Euler-Lagrange (EL) systems that are subject to input saturation constraints that may arise due to actuator faults or failures. The reconfigurable controller consists of three main parts. The first part, known as the nominal controller, is a distributed ...

in this paper, a new t-s fuzzy hyperbolic delay model for a class of nonlinear systems with time-varying delay, is presented to address the problems of stability analysis and feedback control. fuzzy controller is designed based on the parallel distributed compensation (pdc), and with a new lyapunov function, delay dependent asymptotic stability conditions of the closed-loop system are derived v...

Distributed software-defined networks (SDN), consisting of multiple inter-connected network domains, each managed by one SDN controller, is an emerging networking architecture that offers balanced centralized control and distributed operations. Under such networking paradigm, most existing works focus on designing sophisticated controller-synchronization strategies to improve joint controller-d...

The time-optimal control of a distributed parameter system is derived in closed form. The class of systems studied in this work is distributed parameter systems whose dynamics are governed by the wave equation. A frequency domain approach is utilized to arrive at the time-optimal solution that is bang-off-bang. To corroborate the optimally of the control profile derived for the distributed para...

This paper presents the Distributed End-to-end Utiization CONtrol (DEUCON) algorithm. DEUCON can dynamically enforce desired CPU utilizations on all processors in a distributed real-time system despite uncertainties in the system workload. In contrast to earlier centralized control schemes, DEUCON is a distributed control algorithm that is systematically designed based on the Distributed Model ...

Typical testing architectures for distributed software rely on a centralized test controller, which decomposes test cases in steps and deploy them across distributed testers. The controller also guarantees the correct execution of test steps through synchronization messages. These architectures are not scalable while testing large-scale distributed systems due to the cost of synchronization man...

In this paper, we develop a thermodynamic framework for addressing consensus problems for nonlinear multiagent dynamical systems with fixed and switching topologies. Specifically, we present distributed nonlinear static and dynamic controller architectures for multiagent coordination. The proposed controller architectures are predicated on system thermodynamic notions resulting in controller ar...

This paper studies the design of a static output feedback controller for nonlinear systems described by continuous-time Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) models. Motivated by stability results developed for parallel distributed compensation (PDC) controller, an Output PDC (OPDC) controller that corresponds to a nonlinear static output feedback control law is proposed. Both stabilisation and poles placement a...
