The applicability of Model Based Networked Control Systems (MB-NCS) is often limited by the inexact knowledge of the dynamics of the system being controlled. On-line identification of system parameters is used in this paper to upgrade the model of the system, which is used to control the real system when feedback information is unavailable. Background material is offered on the topic of paramet...

—A prototype of modular networked robot for autonomous monitoring works with full control over web through wireless connection has been developed. The robot is equipped with a particular set of built-in analyzing tools and appropriate censors, depending on its main purposes, to enable self-independent and real-time data acquisition and processing. The paper is focused on the microcontroller-bas...

In this paper we describe the ANS system, which is middleware used to provide autonomic management of ubiquitous systems.

Portfolio assessment Portfolio assessment is a systematic means of accumulating and commenting on homework samples by students. Such samples can display or clarify the learning processes of a particular student. Correspondingly, peer assessment enhances a student’s important skills (eg, problem solving) and motivation to learn, thus making it an excellent assessment strategy to evaluate adult l...

In the research on the networked control systems (NCS) the performance of the control system is assumed to be affected by network induced parameters such as delays, jitters, packet losses, link failures. In this paper a reconfiguration of the network control is presented. The upper bound delay of the transmission time of a packet is monitored with the network calculus based algorithm. A modific...
