We introduce PLC-Automata as a new class of automata which are tailored to deal with real-time properties of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). These devices are often used in...
In a shared-memory multiprocessor system, it is possible that certain synchronization operations are redundant -that is, their corresponding sequencing requirements are enforced c...

Fuzzy controllers are designed to work with knowledge in the form of linguistic control rules. But the translation of these linguistic rules into the framework of fuzzy set theory ...
This paper presents a completely systematic design procedure for asynchronous controllers. The initial step is the construction of a signal transition graph (STG, an interpreted P...
