Critical infrastructures have some of the characteristic properties of complex systems. They exhibit infrequent large failures events. These events, though infrequent, often obey ...

One feature of many naturally occurring or engineered complex systems is tremendous variability in event sizes. To account for it, the behavior of these systems is often described...

When the time span of an event is imprecise, it can be represented by a fuzzy set, called a fuzzy time interval. In this paper, we propose a framework to represent, compute, and re...

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are hard to program due to unconventional programming models used to satisfy stringent resource constraints. The common event-driven concurrent pro...

Abstract-- During needle-based procedures, transitions between tissue layers often involve puncture events that produce substantial deformation and tend to drive the needle off cou...
