It is of practical significance to define the notion of a measure of quality of a control system, i.e., a quantitative extension of the classical notion of controllability. In this article we demonstrate that the three standard measures of…

For large-scale network systems, network centrality based on control theory plays a crucial role in understanding their properties and controlling them efficiently. The controllability score is such a centrality index and can give a…

This paper presents a general framework for the design of linear controllers for linear systems subject to time-domain constraints. The design framework exploits sums-of-squares techniques to incorporate the time-domain constraints on…

Positive linear systems on arbitrary time scales are studied. The theory developed in the paper unifies and extends concepts and results known for continuous-time and discrete-time systems. A necessary and sufficient condition for a linear…

In this paper, we investigate the problem of synthesizing strategies for linear temporal logic (LTL) specifications that are interpreted over finite traces -- a problem that is central to the automated construction of controllers, robot…

Algebraically speaking, linear time-invariant (LTI) systems can be considered as modules. In this framework, controllability is translated as the freeness of the system module. Optimal control mainly relies on quadratic Lagrangians and the…

Some necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for the controllability and observability of a networked system with linear time invariant (LTI) dynamics. The topology of this system is fixed but arbitrary, and every subsystem is…

Scalable frames are frames with the property that the frame vectors can be rescaled resulting in tight frames. However, if a frame is not scalable, one has to aim for an approximate procedure. For this, in this paper we introduce three…

This paper investigates the controllability of finite-dimensional linear fractional systems involving an uncertain parameter. We establish new results on the simultaneous and average controllability. In particular, we show that average…

A fundamental concept in control theory is that of controllability, where any system state can be reached through an appropriate choice of control inputs. Indeed, a large body of classical and modern approaches are designed for controllable…

Achieving optimal steady-state performance in real-time is an increasingly necessary requirement of many critical infrastructure systems. In pursuit of this goal, this paper builds a systematic design framework of feedback controllers for…

Internal software quality determines the maintainability of the software product and influences the quality in use. There is a plethora of metrics which purport to measure the internal quality of software, and these metrics are offered by…

Two indicators are classically used to evaluate the quality of rule-based classification systems: predictive accuracy, i.e. the system's ability to successfully reproduce learning data and coverage, i.e. the proportion of possible cases for…

Nowadays, systems containing components based on machine learning (ML) methods are becoming more widespread. In order to ensure the intended behavior of a software system, there are standards that define necessary quality aspects of the…

Linear time-invariant control systems can be considered as finitely generated modules over the commutative principal ideal ring $\mathbb{R}[\frac{d}{dt}]$ of linear differential operators with respect to the time derivative. The Kalman…

Systems equipped with modern sensing modalities such as vision and lidar gain access to increasingly high-dimensional measurements with which to enact estimation and control schemes. In this article, we examine the continuum limit of…

In this paper, we study the control of a class of time-invariant linear ensemble systems whose natural dynamics are linear in the system parameter. This class of ensemble control systems arises from practical engineering and physical…

In this paper, we study the concept of approximate controllability of retarded network systems of neutral type. On one hand, we reformulate such systems as free-delay boundary control systems on product spaces. On the other hand, we use the…

This paper introduces a framework for quantitative characterization of the controllability of time-varying linear systems (or networks) in terms of input novelty. The motivation for such an approach comes from the study of biophysical…

In this paper we consider output controllability for linear time-invariant systems. In a recent paper by Danhane, Loh{\'e}ac and Jungers it has been pointed out that although output controllability is a classical notion in control theory,…
