Transfer reinforcement learning (RL) methods leverage on the experience collected on a set of source tasks to speed-up RL algorithms. A simple and ef…
This brief paper proposes an uncertainty quantification method for the periodic steady-state (PSS) analysis with both Gaussian and non-Gaussian varia…
In this paper, a simulation-based method for the analysis and design of abstracted models for a stochastic hybrid system is proposed. The accuracy of…
A complex pervasive system is typically composed of many cooperating \emph{nodes}, running on machines with different capabilities, and pervasively d…
Despite the growing necessity to make Internet greener, it is worth pointing out that energy-aware strategies to minimize network energy consumption …
Under Assumption 5, Assumption 1 is satisfied for d1∈N, Gd1:[Δ×{0,1}]d1→D. Then, there exists md1({δi}mi=1)∈Id1 such that Hmd1=Gd1({(δi,\mathbbm1T(δi))}i∈md1) is consistent with {(δi,\mathbbm1T(δi))}mi=1. Since Hmd1={δ∈Δ: g(xd1({δi}i∈md1),δ)≤0},
We investigate the connections between compression learning and scenario based optimization. We first show how to strengthen, or relax the consistenc…
The design of Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has been conventionally tackled by assuming battery-powered d…
We have generalized Medvedev’s homomorphic characterization of regular languages: instead of using as generator a local language over a large alphabet, which depends on the complexity of the regular language, we can use a strictly locally testable l…
A classical result (often credited to Y. Medvedev) states that every language recognized by a finite automaton is the homomorphic image of a local la…
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) support data collection and distributed data processing by means of very small sensing devices that are easy to tamper…
The concept of leader--follower (or Stackelberg) equilibrium plays a central role in a number of real--world applications of game theory. While the c…
In this paper we consider a linear system represented by a coupling graph between subsystems and propose a distributed control scheme capable to guar…
In this paper we consider a linear system structured into physically coupled subsystems and propose a decentralized control scheme capable to guarant…
Consider a discrete-time system in which a centralized controller (CC) is tasked with assigning at each time interval (or slot) K resources (or serve…
Many product lines are critical, and therefore reliability is a vital part of their requirements. Reliability is a probabilistic property. We therefo…
The Cloud Computing paradigm is providing system architects with a new powerful tool for building scalable applications. Clouds allow allocation of r…
Using mobile robots for autonomous patrolling of environments to prevent intrusions is a topic of increasing practical relevance. One of the most cha…
The Noise Transfer Function (NTF) of {\Delta}{\Sigma} modulators is typically designed after the features of the input signal. We suggest that in man…
