— Distributed applications require specific middleware support for semantics and run-time constraints for a wide range of hardware or software configurations. However, their fu...
It is well known that the performance of computer controlled systems is heavily affected by delays and jitter occurring in the control loops, which are mainly caused by the interf...
- Monitoring and controlling a large number of geographically distributed scientific instruments is a challenging task. Some operations on these instruments require real-time (or q...

Abstract— The present paper considers distributed consensus algorithms for agents evolving on a connected compact homogeneous (CCH) manifold. The agents track no external referen...
In this paper, we aim to ascribe a meaning to SysML activity diagrams. To this end, we propose a dedicated algebraic-like language, namely activity calculus, and an operational se...
