In this paper, an optimal adaptive sliding mode controller is proposed for anti-synchronization of two identical hyperchaotic systems. We use hyperchaotic complex T-system for master and slave systems with unknown parameters in the slave system. To construct the optimal adaptive sliding mode controller, first a simple sliding surface is designed. Then, the optimal adaptive sliding mode controll...

Viewing biological, social or technological systems as networks formed by nodes and connections between them can help better understand them. We study the topology of several music networks, namely citation in allmusic.com and co-occurrence of artists in playlists. The analysis uncovers the emergence of complex network phenomena in music information networks built considering artists as nodes a...

Analyzing a complex system means analyzing the world in which the system functions, or the "context of use". If we want to design systems for the context of use, we need to take the task world into consideration. Based on a framework derived from Jordan we will elaborate the "map" of sources of knowledge of the task and context of use of interactive systems. We provide an overview of the releva...

The distinction between complicated and complex systems is of immense importance, yet it is often overlooked. Decision-makers commonly mistake complex systems for simply complicated ones and look for solutions without realizing that ‘learning to dance’ with a complex system is definitely different from ‘solving’ the problems arising from it. The situation becomes even worse as far as modern soc...

 The complex information systems such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems are essential for organizations to make them competitive. However, the success of ERP system projects is a difficult process as it involves different types of end user assessment. The main objective of the present study is to find the key determinants that open the door to employee satisfaction and adoption of E...

Today, the electricity power system is the most complicated engineering system has ever been made. The integrated power generating stations with power transmission lines has created a network, called complex power network. The reliability estimation of such complex power networks is a very challenging problem, as one cannot find any immediate solution methods in current literature. In this pape...

the present article investigates the stress pattern system of central sarawani balochi (csb), spoken in sarawan located in sistan and baluchestan province of the islamic republic of iran, based on metrical theory as developed in hayes (1995). correspondingly, the present research illustrates the position of primary and secondary stress in mono-morphemic words, verbal paradigms, compound words, ...

agriculture is a complex system science and the knowledge of it is consisting of much concepts and relationships. examinations in connection with site-specific farming have been carried out by our institute since 1998. precision farming is a way of agricultural production, which takes into account the in-field variability, a technology where the application-seeding, nutrient replacement, sprayi...

comNode classification within Membrane Residue Curves (M-RCMs) currently hinges on Lyapunov’s Theorem and therefore the computation of mathematically complex eigenvalues. This paper presents an alternative criterion for the classification of nodes within M-RCMs based on the total membrane flux at node compositions. This paper demonstrates that for a system exhibiting simple permeation behaviour...
