Multiply sectioned Bayesian networks (MSBNs) provide a framework for proba-bilistic reasoning in a complex single user oriented system as well as in a cooperative multi-agent distributed interpretation system. During the construction or dynamic formation of a MSBN, automatic veriication of the acyclicity of the overall structure is desired. Well known algorithms for acyclicity test assume a cen...

We model the robustness against random failure or an intentional attack of networks with an arbitrary large-scale structure. We construct a block-based model which incorporates--in a general fashion--both connectivity and interdependence links, as well as arbitrary degree distributions and block correlations. By optimizing the percolation properties of this general class of networks, we identif...

This paper presents a control structure for transformerless photovoltaic inverters connected in parallel to manage photovoltaic fields in the MW range. Large photovoltaic farms are usually divided into several photovoltaic fields, each one of them managed by a centralized high power inverter. The current tendency to build up centralized inverters in the MW range is the use of several transforme...

Due to the rapid development of VLSI technology, computing systems can be made much more distributed and to match the structures of the problems for various applications. Because the characteristics of distributed computing systems are significantly different from those of centralized computing systems, different a,pproaches are needed to effectively address t,he design issues related to the ch...

Network of public spaces composes of a network of interconnected land use and various elements of the city, such as synthetic and natural which shows the city as a whole. Network structure of public spaces is important because understanding this network as a structure presents us the formation of the city. This paper attempts to define the status of the network of public spaces in the city stru...

Most current s c hemes for multicast routing assume that multicast routers participate both in forwarding mul-ticast packets and in control algorithms for routing, resource reservation, and group management. By separating data and control ow, and by c e n tralizing control in distinct control elements, we h a ve designed a simple and scalable approach t o I P m ulticast that we call Centralized...
