In this paper, network of agents with identical dynamics is considered. The agents are assumed to be fed by self and neighboring output measurements, while the states are not available for measuring. Viewing distributed estimation as dual…

The Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) has recently concluded a set of engineering flights for Observatory performance evaluation. These in-flight opportunities are viewed as a first comprehensive assessment of the…

The transition from large centralized complex control systems to distributed configurations that rely on a network of a very large number of interconnected simpler subsystems is ongoing and inevitable in many applications. It is attributed…

Integrated optics has brought unprecedented levels of stability and performance to quantum photonic circuits. However, integrated devices are not merely micron-scale equivalents of their bulk-optics counterparts. By exploiting the…

This paper presents a survey of recent results on the theory of negative imaginary systems. This theory can be applied to the robust control of large flexible structures with colocated force actuators and position sensors.

The U.S. Virtual Astronomical Observatory (VAO) is a product-driven organization that provides new scientific research capabilities to the astronomical community. Software development for the VAO follows a lightweight framework that guides…

Probing signal injection is a well-established technique to extract additional information from a weakly (or non) observable dynamical system. Using averaging theory, a framework to analyse such schemes for general nonlinear systems has…

With the advancement of IoT technologies and the rapid expansion of cyber-physical systems, there is increasing interest in distributed state estimation, where multiple sensors collaboratively monitor large-scale dynamic systems. Compared…

In this paper we propose an optimization-based framework to multiple object matching. The framework takes maps computed between pairs of objects as input, and outputs maps that are consistent among all pairs of objects. The central idea of…

Observatories constructed solely for photometric monitoring make it possible to understand the temporal nature of objects over time scales that historically have been difficult to achieve. We report on one such observatory, the Remote…

In this paper, we consider a secure distributed filtering problem for linear time-invariant systems with bounded noises and unstable dynamics under compromised observations. A malicious attacker is able to compromise a subset of the agents…

With the rapid development of green energy, the efficiency and reliability of wind turbines are key to sustainable renewable energy production. For that reason, this paper presents a novel intelligent system architecture designed for the…

This article focuses on the development of functional unknown input observers for systems with arbitrary relative degree. Two distinct approaches are presented to address this challenge. The first approach is tailored to a class of…

Proposed as part of the next generation of water Cherenkov detectors, Hyper-Kamiokande will have a vastly improved potential in determining leptonic CP violation in neutrino oscillations. Well understood optical diffusers are needed as part…

The NK model has been used widely to explore aspects of natural evolution and complex systems. This paper introduces a modified form of the NK model for exploring distributed control in complex systems such as organisations, social…

We present a case study on the strategic planning of a security operations center in a typical, modern, mid-size organization. Against the backdrop of the company's multi-cloud strategy a distributed approach envisioning the involvement of…

We examine the problem of weaknesses in frameworks of conceptual modeling for handling certain aspects of the system being modeled. We propose the use of a flow-based modeling methodology at the conceptual level. Specifically, and without…

Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality (AR/VR) glasses are widely foreseen as the next generation computing platform. AR/VR glasses are a complex "system of systems" which must satisfy stringent form factor, computing-, power- and thermal-…

India-based Neutrino Observatory (INO) is a planned neutrino experiment to be build up in southern part of India.The INO observatory will host a 51 kton Iron Calorimeter (ICAL) detector to detect atmospheric neutrinos. Resistive Plate…

The aim of this paper is to present the application of an approach to study contraction theory recently developed for piecewise smooth and switched systems. The approach that can be used to analyze incremental stability properties of…
