This paper provides a tutorial-style overview of sensor networks from a systems and control
theory perspective. We identify key sensor network design and operational control problems …

Dynamic voltage scaling is used in energy-limited systems as a means of conserving energy
and prolonging their life. We consider a setting in which the tasks performed by such a …

It has been shown that by using appropriate channel coding schemes in wireless
environments, transmission energy can be significantly reduced by controlling the packet …

We consider discrete event systems involving tasks with real-time constraints and seek to

We consider discrete event systems (DESs) involving tasks with dependability requirements
in the form of real-time constraints. We seek to control their processing times so as to satisfy …

We consider discrete-event systems (DES) involving the control of tasks with real-time
constraints. When future event time information is limited, we propose a receding horizon …

Abstract 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 …

Abstract We consider Discrete Event Systems that can dynamically allocate resources in
order to process tasks with real-time constraints. In the case of “weakly hard” constraints, a …

The paper deals with the optimal control of production processes characterized by the
possibility of performing operations (relevant to the processing of a set of jobs) with variable …
