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...

— We consider problems where multiple agents must cooperate to control their individual state so as to optimize a common objective while communicating with each other to exchange...
This paper presents a model-based approach to requirements engineering for reactive systems; we use an elevator controller as case study. We identify and justify two key propertie...
: Mobility in wireless sensor networks poses unique challenges to the medium access control (MAC) protocol design. Previous MAC protocols for sensor networks assume static sensor n...
In this paper we propose a new equivalence relation for dynamical and control systems called bisimulation. As the name implies this definition is inspired by the fundamental notio...
