Ordering Events Based on Intentionality in Cyber-Physical Systems

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Simon Bliudze, Wajeb Saab, Maaz Mashood Mohiuddin

We consider cyber-physical systems (CPSs) comprising a central controller that might be replicated for high-reliability, and one or more process agents. The controller receives measurements from process agents, causing it to compute and issue setpoints tha ...

Digitally controlled analog proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller for high-speed scanning probe microscopy

Georg Fantner, Adrian Pascal Nievergelt, Nahid Hosseini, Santiago Harald Andany, Maja Dukic Pjanic, Chen Yang

Nearly all scanning probe microscopes (SPMs) contain a feedback controller, which is used to move the scanner in the direction of the z-axis in order to maintain a constant setpoint based on the tip-sample interaction. The most frequently used feedback con ...

Improved methodology and set-point design for diagnosis of model-plant mismatch in control loops using plant-model ratio

Alireza Karimi

Performance of any model-based control scheme depends on the quality of model. When these schemes deliver poor loop performance due to model-plant mismatch (MPM), a detection of the same needs to be in place. A recently introduced plant model ratio (PMR) n ...

An Energetic Based Method Leading to Merged Control Loops for the Stability of Input Filters

Philippe Barrade

In most of applications, power converters are controlled to allow their output current/voltage to follow the required reference values. For DC/DC and DC/AC converters, the control must take into account their input voltage, which must be rejected. In such ...
