We study a class of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) driven by a random measure or, equivalently, by a marked point process. Under appropriate assumptions we prove well-posedness and continuous dependence of the solution…

This work presents a theoretical framework for the safety-critical control of time delay systems. The theory of control barrier functions, that provides formal safety guarantees for delay-free systems, is extended to systems with state…

We present a stochastic model predictive control framework for nonlinear systems subject to unbounded process noise with closed-loop guarantees. First, we provide a conceptual shrinking-horizon framework that utilizes general probabilistic…

Distributed model predictive control methods for uncertain systems often suffer from considerable conservatism and can tolerate only small uncertainties due to the use of robust formulations that are amenable to distributed design and…

In this paper, we present a control synthesis framework for a general class of nonlinear, control-affine systems under spatiotemporal and input constraints. First, we study the problem of fixed-time convergence in the presence of input…

In this work, we derive a region-based self-triggered control (STC) scheme for nonlinear systems with bounded disturbances and model uncertainties. The proposed STC scheme is able to guarantee different performance specifications (e.g.…

This paper presents a constraint-enforcing control framework for a class of discrete-time strict-feedback nonlinear systems. The objective is to guarantee closed-loop stability while ensuring forward invariance of a prescribed safe set…

This paper proposes a procedure to control an uncertain discrete-time networked control system through a limited stabilizing input information. The system is primarily affected by the time-varying, norm bounded, mismatched parametric…

Achieving control objectives (e.g., stabilization or convergence of tracking error to zero, input-to-state stabilization) in "prescribed time" has attracted significant research interest in recent years. The key property of prescribed-time…

This paper presents a stochastic model predictive control approach for nonlinear systems subject to time-invariant probabilistic uncertainties in model parameters and initial conditions. The stochastic optimal control problem entails a cost…

Fastness and robustness are both critical in the implementation of high-fidelity gates for quantum computation, but in practice, a trade-off has to be made between them. In this paper, we investigate the underlying robust time-optimal…

We present BMC4TimeSec, an end-to-end tool for verifying Timed Security Protocols (TSP) based on SMT-based bounded model checking and multi-agent modelling in the form of Timed Interpreted Systems (TIS) and Timed Interleaved Interpreted…

Closed-loop performance of sequential decision making algorithms, such as model predictive control, depends strongly on the choice of controller parameters. Bayesian optimization allows learning of parameters from closed-loop experiments,…

We consider the Chance Constrained Model Predictive Control problem for polynomial systems subject to disturbances. In this problem, we aim at finding optimal control input for given disturbed dynamical system to minimize a given cost…

In this paper, we investigate the enforcement of opacity via supervisory control in the context of discrete-event systems. A system is said to be opaque if the intruder, which is modeled as a passive observer, can never infer confidently…

This paper presents a novel approach for ensuring safe operation of systems subject to input nonlinearities and time-varying safety constraints. We extend the time-varying barrier function framework to address time-varying safety…

This paper presents Timed Quorum System (TQS), a new quorum system especially suited for large-scale and dynamic systems. TQS requires that two quorums intersect with high probability if they are used in the same small period of time. It…

This paper addresses the problem of asymptotic tracking for high-order control-affine MIMO nonlinear systems with unknown dynamic terms subject to input and transient state constraints. We introduce Barrier Integral Control (BRIC), a novel…

For several years, the completion time and decoding delay problems in Instantly Decodable Network Coding (IDNC) were considered separately and were thought to completely act against each other. Recently, some works aimed to balance the…

There has been an increasing interest in using neural networks in closed-loop control systems to improve performance and reduce computational costs for on-line implementation. However, providing safety and stability guarantees for these…
