We consider Discrete Event Systems (DES) involving tasks with real-time constraints and seek to control processing times so as to minimize a cost function subject to each task mee...
— In the real world, noisy sensors and limited communication make it difficult for robot teams to coordinate in tightly coupled tasks. Team members cannot simply apply single-ro...

— In recent years, idempotent methods (specifically, max-plus methods) have been developed for solution of nonlinear control problems. It was thought that idempotent linearity o...
Event-driven distributed infrastructures are becoming increasingly important for information dissemination and application integration. We examine the problem of optimal resource ...
—Robustness of optimization models for networking problems has been an under-explored area. Yet most existing algorithms for solving robust optimization problems are centralized,...
