Markov chain models of bare-bones particle swarm optimizers
We apply a novel theoretical approach to better understand the behaviour of different types of bare-bones PSOs. It avoids many common but unrealistic assumptions often used in an...

Cheating for problem solving: a genetic algorithm with social interactions
We propose a variation of the standard genetic algorithm that incorporates social interaction between the individuals in the population. Our goal is to understand the evolutionary...

Modal and transition dwell time computation in switching systems: a set-theoretic approach
We consider a plant the dynamics of which switch among a family of systems. Each of these systems has a single stable equilibrium point. We assume that a constraint region for the...

Timed I/O Automata: A Mathematical Framework for Modeling and Analyzing Real-Time Systems
We describe the Timed Input/Output Automata (TIOA) framework, a general mathematical framework for modeling and analyzing real-time systems. It is based on timed I/O automata, whi...

Formal Verification of Safety-Critical Hybrid Systems
This paper investigates how formal techniques can be used for the analysis and verification of hybrid systems [1,5,7,16] -- systems involving both discrete and continuous behavior....
