the term “system” is defined as «elements standing interaction». this implies that a change in any given element should bring about changes in other elements of the system and thus may be used to identify the boundaries of a system. a system can be a machine, a man, or a community. each of these may be part of a greater system (super system) or include several smaller systems (subsystems). syst...

in this paper, an observer based fuzzy adaptive controller (fac) is designed fora class of large scale systems with non-canonical non-affine nonlinear subsystems. it isassumed that functions of the subsystems and the interactions among subsystems areunknown. by constructing a new class of state observer for each follower, the proposedconsensus control method solves the problem of unmeasured sta...

The embedded and mobile computing market with its wide range of innovations is expected to remain growing in the foreseeable future. Recent developments in the embedded computing technology offer more performance thereby facilitating applications of unprecedented utility. Open systems, such as Linux, provide access to a huge software base. Nevertheless, these systems have to coexist with critic...
