Experimenting with Hybrid Control
(2000)
There is a growing realization among educators andemployers that students of automatic control should be encouraged tothink of the subject in broader terms. The systems approach shouldembrace communication requirements, ...
The Dynamics of a Forced Sphere-Plate Mechanical System
(2000)
We study the dynamics and explore thecontrollability of a family of sphere-plate mechanical systems. Theseare nonholonomic systems with a five-dimensional configuration spaceand three independent velocities. They consist ...
Generalized Inverses for Finite-Horizon Tracking
(2000)
Control and communication issues aretraditionally "decoupled" in discussions of decision and controlproblems, as this simplifies the analysis and generally works well forclassical models. This fundamental assumption deserves ...
Stabilization of LTI Systems with Communication Constraints
(1999)
This work is directed towards exploring interactions ofcommunication and control in systems with communication constraints.Examples of such systems include groups of autonomousvehicles, MEMS arrays and systems whose sensors ...
