Discrete Event Systems (DES) constitute a class of dynamic systems characterised by state transitions that occur at discrete points in time, triggered by instantaneous events. Supervisory Control ...

Max-plus linear systems represent a class of mathematical models where the conventional operations of addition and multiplication are replaced by maximisation and addition, respectively. This ...

At each sampling time instant, one observes system output and action to form discrete-time rewards. The sampled input-output data are collected along the trajectory of the dynamical system in ...

It’s long been known that a reactive approach to industrial control system maintenance is not an ideal strategy. Working from a reactive stance, in which problems are corrected as they occur, results ...
