Commented on Event-Triggered Adaptive Dynamic Programming for Continuous-Time Systems With Control Constraints
In this paper, an event-triggered near-optimal control structure is developed for nonlinear continuous-time systems with control constraints. Due to the saturating actuators, a nonquadratic cost function is introduced, and the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation for constrained nonlinear continuous-time systems is formulated. In order to solve the HJB equation, an actor-critic framework is presented. The critic network is used to approximate the cost function, and the action network is used to estimate the optimal control law. In addition, in the proposed method, the control signal is transmitted aperiodic to reduce the computational and transmission costs. Both networks are only updated at the trigger instants decided by the event-triggered condition. Detailed Lyapunov analysis is provided to guarantee that the closed-loop event-triggered system is ultimately bounded. Three case studies are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Commented on The Real-Time Systems Compiler: migrating event-triggered systems to time-triggered systems
In this paper, the authors presented the prototype of the RTSC, a tool that assists in migrating event triggered to time-triggered systems. The long-term goal of the RTSC is to achieve the generic configuration of the real-time systems architecture. The key idea is to hide the real-time systems architecture used to implement the internal structure – the white-box view – of a real-time system behind an appropriate abstraction and connect that abstraction to the temporal properties of the physical environment of the real-time system – its black-box idea.

Commented on Distributed Aperiodic Time-Triggered and Event-Triggered Consensus: A Scalability Viewpoint
Authors revisit distributed sampled-data consensus problems from a scalability point of view. Existing solutions in the literature for estimating the maximum sampling interval that preserves stability rely on the Lyapunov functional method. This method treats the overall closed-loop system (i.e., the overall network of agents) as a time-delayed system. Here, a critical point is the scalability of the resulting stability conditions: in fact, the size of the LMIs to be solved depends on the network size. In contrast with this method, an easy-to-use and scalable method is presented, with stability conditions independent of the network's size. It is shown that the proposed method can handle linear and Lipschitz nonlinear multiagent systems with both aperiodic time-triggered and event-triggered control in a unified way. Numerical examples show the efficiency of the proposed approach and the tightness of the estimated maximum sampling interval.

Commented on AI & your research work
The Fourth International Conference on Emerging Techniques in Computational Intelligence, ICETCI 2024 will be held at Mahindra University, Hyderabad on Aug 22-24, 2024. This is technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society (CIS) as in the prior editions. This conference aims to highlight the evolution of topics, frontline research and multiple applications in the domain of Computational Intelligence, from the mainstream foundations to novel investigations and applications. The conference comprises of one day of tutorial sessions followed by two days of Keynote Lectures by invited international experts from Industry and Academia, and technical paper presentations. Also, the conference hosts several special sessions on emerging technologies and applications related to computational intelligence. In addition to tutorials by experts from the academia, the conference is also expected to have industry-relevant tutorials by experts from top industries operating in this field. More information on the Conference may be found at https://www.ietcint.com/ ICETCI 2024 invites submissions that are original, previously unpublished innovative work in any area of Computational Intelligence, both emerging topics which form the theme of the conference as well as more foundational areas.

Commented on Dynamic generation of accident progression event trees
Currently, the development and analysis of accident progression event trees (APETs) are performed in a manner that is computationally time-consuming, difficult to reproduce, and phenomenologically inconsistent. A software tool is presented for automated APET generation using the concept of dynamic event trees. The tool determines the branching times from a severe accident analysis code based on user-specified criteria for branching. It assigns user-specified probabilities to every branch, tracks the total branch probability, and truncates units based on the given pruning/truncation rules to avoid an unmanageable number of scenarios. While the software tool could be applied to any systems analysis code, the MELCOR code is used for this illustration. A case study is presented involving a station dimming with the loss of an auxiliary feedwater system for a pressurized water reactor.

Commented on Code generation for Event-B
Event-B is a modelling language and a formal methods approach for correct construction of software. This paper presents our work on code generation for Event-B, including the definition of a syntactic translation from EventB to JML-annotated Java programs, the implementation of the translation as the EventB2Java tool, and two case studies on the use of EventB2Java. The first case study is on implementing an Android application with the aid of the EventB2Java tool, and the second is on testing an Event-B specification of the Tokeneer security-critical system. Additionally, we have benchmarked our EventB2Java tool against two other Java code generators for Event-B
