The optimal control problem for the networked control system with multiple switching modes over high speed local area networks is addressed, where an initial state is a parametric vector. Because in the general case, the time delay is much less than the s... see more

This article presents an ant colony optimization for the time scheduling of public transport traffic. In fact, the assistance of a decision support system becomes necessary for the real-time regulation of this transport networks since the size of the sear... see more

The PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) is often defined as a set of functions and procedures which allows one to manage and to exploit the data defining at the same time the products and the processes implemented for their developments. However, the insta... see more

The problem of global exponential stability for a class of nonlinear singularly perturbed systems is examined in this paper. The stability analysis is based on the use of basic results of integral manifold of nonlinear singularly perturbed systems, the co... see more

Adequate Path Planning design is an important stage for controlling flexible axes because it may allow to cancel vibrations induced by oscillating modes. Among bang-bang profiles which are linked to optimal control, jerk assignment (acceleration derivativ... see more

The conversion of time domain data via the fast Fourier (FFT) and Hilbert-Huang (HHT) transforms is compared. The FFT treats amplitude vs. time information globally as it transforms the data to an amplitude vs. frequency description. The HHT is not constr... see more

This paper deals with supervision in critical time manufacturing jobshops without assembling tasks. Such systems have a robustness property to deal with time disturbances. A filtering mechanism of sensors signals integrating the robustness values is propo... see more

Over the last decades, it has become a strong need for exchange on common computational and algorithmic tools between researchers working in different application backgrounds. Under this situation, the first CESA conference (CESA96) was successfully held ... see more

This paper deals with the control of a variable speed, pitch regulated wind turbine in the whole plant operating area. The wind turbine operating area can be divided into several zones, depending on the wind speed, and the control objectives are different... see more

In this paper, an analytical approach to characterize discrete Tanaka Sugeno Kang (TSK) fuzzy systems is presented. This characterization concerns the choice of the adequate conjunctive operator between input variables of discrete TSK fuzzy models, t-norm... see more

A novel method to detect vehicles is presented in the paper. Assumption of the vehicle is made using the geometrical features of the vehicle rear by the statistical histogram. Then hypothesis is verified using the property of the shadow cast by the car ac... see more
