A simple dynamic model of agent operation of an infrastructure system is presented. This system evolves over a long time scale by a daily increase in consumer demand that raises t...

The theory of supervisory control of discrete event systems is extended to the real-time setting. The real-time behavior of a system is represented by the set of all possible time...
gn process of embedded systems moves currently towards higher levels of abstraction. As a consequence, a need arises for an early and realistic assessment of system level design d...
In this paper, timed Petri nets are used to model and control hybrid systems. Petri nets are used instead of finite automata primarily because of the advantages they offer in de...

How to effectively allocate system resource to meet the Service Level Agreement (SLA) of Web servers is a challenging problem. In this paper, we propose an improved scheme for aut...
