The subject matter of the study is the automated guided vehicle (AGV) operation synchronisation mechanisms in flexible manufacturing systems. The processes examination has to guarantee the collision-free and deadlock-free AGVs flow. The problem of determination of the rules coordinating access of the vehicles to the shared travel route intervals, ensuring the collision-free and deadlock-free ex...

In this work, a prescribed-time second-order sliding mode (SOSM) controller is constructed to address class of nonlinear systems in the presence asymmetric output constraints. To handle constraints, frequently-used barrier Lyapunov function employed. Meanwhile, time-varying scaling introduced ensure convergence closed-loop system. On basis, SOSM by inserting BLF and into modified power integrat...

Submodular maximization has wide applications in machine learning and data mining, where massive datasets have brought the great need for designing efficient parallelizable algorithms. One measure of parallelizability a submodular algorithm is its adaptivity complexity, which indicates number sequential rounds polynomial queries to objective function can be executed parallel. In this paper, we ...
