Discrete event systems (DES) are dynamic systems in which state changes occur at distinct instants in response to asynchronously generated events. Modelling and control of such systems rely on formal ...

At each sampling time instant, one observes system output and action to form discrete-time rewards. The sampled input-output data are collected along the trajectory of the dynamical system in ...

Sampled‐data control systems address the interplay between continuous‐time plant dynamics and discrete‐time control interventions. By employing devices such as a zero‐order hold, digital controllers ...

Manufacturers need scalable platforms that support real-time visibility, flexible deployment and seamless integration across machines, lines and facilities regardless of operation size. Modern control ...

The key to effective instrumentation is the development of sensors that can measure or control the environment and share information among people, benefitting society by helping to pool knowledge and ...

ISA-95, also known as ANSI/ISA-95 or IEC 62264, is an international set of standards aimed at integrating logistics systems with manufacturing control systems. It organizes technology and business ...
