This paper surveys recent results in the field of optimal control of hybrid and switched
systems. We first summarize results that use different problem formulations and then explore …

A continuous output feedback control scheme rendering the closed-loop double integrator
system globally stable in finite-time is presented. In particular, the convergence time is …

This paper provides a survey on communications in CPS and a tutorial of a unified
framework, ie, hybrid system featured by the co-existence of discrete and continuous system …

The material discussed in this monograph is a result of our research program at the Mexican
Center for Advanced Studies and Research (CINVESTAV, Mexico City, Mexico) and the …

Fault diagnosis is very critical for battery management systems. This paper proposes a fault
diagnosis method for voltage sensor and current sensor in Lithium-ion battery pack system …

In cyber physical systems, communication is needed for conveying sensor observations to
controllers; thus, the design of the communication sub-system is of key importance for the …

This book deals with sliding mode control (SMC) of uncertain nonlinear systems, focusing in
particular on advanced and optimization based algorithms. The aim is to provide an …

Any finite-time convergent homogeneous sliding-mode controller can be transformed into a
fixed-time convergent one, featuring an upper bound of convergence time, which does not …

Hybrid systems are models which combine discrete and continuous behavior. They occur
frequently in safety-critical applications in various domains such as health care …

In this introductory article, we survey the contents of this Theme Issue. This Theme Issue
deals with a fertile region of hybrid dynamical systems that are characterized by the …
