For linear control systems, the usual state feedback stabilizability has two components: one is a continuous observation mode (i.e., to observe solutions continuously in time), and the other is a class of feedback laws (which is usually the…

This paper explores the use of laboratory closed-loop learning control to either fight or cooperate with decoherence in the optimal manipulation of quantum dynamics. Simulations of the processes are performed in a Lindblad formulation on…
Distributed sensor networks are commonly operated through coincidence logic: if detector reports overlap within a prescribed time window, an event is declared. While effective for clean, high-significance signals, this approach becomes…
In closed-loop wireless control systems, the state-of-the-art approach prescribes that a controller receives by wireless communications the individual sensor measurements, and then sends the computed control signal to the actuators. We…

In this paper we first study the fixed-time stabilizability of discrete-time switched linear control systems. Using a geometric approach, we derive conditions under which such systems can be stabilized within a prescribed number of steps,…
We consider the optimal distributed controller design problem subject to two structural requirements: locality, i.e. available measurements and sub-controllers' interactions are governed by a graph structure, and relative feedback, i.e.…
Group communication is becoming a more and more popular infrastructure for efficient distributed applications. It consists in representing locally a group of remote objects as a single object accessed in a single step; communications are…
