The sampled-data system consists of a deterministic, linear, time-invariant, continuous-time plant and a stochastic, linear, time-invariant, discrete-time, jump linear controller. The jump linear controller models computer systems and communication networks that are subject to stochastic upsets or disruptions. This sampled-data model has been used in the analysis and design of fault-tolerant systems and computer-control systems with random communication delays without taking into account the inter-sample response. This paper shows that the known equivalence between the stability of a deterministic sampled-data system and the associated discrete-time representation holds even in a stochastic framework.","PeriodicalId":309617,"journal":{"name":"Thirty-Sixth Southeastern Symposium on System Theory, 2004.

In our prototype mobile agent IDS, the focus is on port scanning and file integrity checking. The mobile agents are implemented using the Concordia mobile agent development kit. The performance and memory resources required to run these mobile agents are discussed.","PeriodicalId":309617,"journal":{"name":"Thirty-Sixth Southeastern Symposium on System Theory, 2004.

It maps directly from the data set to the rendered image without any intermediate geometric calculations. This paper presents a method to generate high-quality renderings by designing opacity functions that (1) are correctly correlated to particular data values of interest, (2) discriminate regions of interest from remaining data values, and (3) dynamically control the transfer function by relating values located in the raw volume data set to color and specified opacity values. Gradient constructs are formulated to capture more effectively subtle features within the volume. Gradient calculations are performed on directional derivatives along gradient directions. The method described herein is applied to data generated at the GE Aircraft Engines in Evansdale, OH which are available through the Stanford's Volpack library.","PeriodicalId":309617,"journal":{"name":"Thirty-Sixth Southeastern Symposium on System Theory, 2004.

The model is based on the steady-state T-type equivalent circuit of the induction motor and the input-output relationships of the six-step voltage source inverter. In the simplified model, a V-I load characteristic curve is established that allows the inverter, motor, and load to be replaced by a current-controlled voltage source. The model is verified using PSPICE and Matlab. The simplified model also has the potential to be utilized in the analysis of a multiple bus dc power system by incorporating the V-I load curves of each motor-drive load into a Newton-Raphson iterative procedure.","PeriodicalId":309617,"journal":{"name":"Thirty-Sixth Southeastern Symposium on System Theory, 2004.

By clutter complexity, we mean an aggregation of statistical image features that predict the \"degree of difficulty\" to detect and/or identify a target object in an image. We show that clutter complexity correlates well with single-band automatic target recognition (ATR) performance. We also show the performance of the multi-band ATR when the bands are selected based on clutter complexity. To baseline this ATR performance, we consider a uniform band ordering strategy and an \"optimal\" ordering strategy determined by an exhaustive search. Our results show that the ordering by clutter complexity results in an improvement of the ATR performance when compared to the uniform ordering strategy. This improved performance is however not as good as the performance obtained for the optimal ordering.","PeriodicalId":309617,"journal":{"name":"Thirty-Sixth Southeastern Symposium on System Theory, 2004.

The change in resistance has a large impact on the slotless surface PMSM control performance due to its relatively large stator resistance in comparison with its inductance impedance. Nonlinear robust control eliminates the need for temperature sensing and is a suitable control approach for the frequently starting and stopping operation motor control. The controller takes into account the system nonlinearities and makes no requirements on the variation of the resistance. Therefore, it is full range operational. The Lyapunov stability proof is given in detail. The designed controller is shown to be efficient and robust with the simulation.","PeriodicalId":309617,"journal":{"name":"Thirty-Sixth Southeastern Symposium on System Theory, 2004.

Cupolas rely on the experience of the operator for a smooth operation. The focus of this research is to develop a fuzzy-logic based expert system, which would provide expert advice to a cupola operator to address multiple operational problems occurring simultaneously in the cupola. An expert system for a cupola operation is not currently available. Expert sub-systems, which address individual operational problems, are developed and tested. These sub-systems are integrated using an intelligent methodology so as to provide suggestions that address multiple operational problems simultaneously. A self-corrective capability was introduced into the expert system by developing an iterative process for some vital parameters in the cupola furnace. Provisions were given to the user to prioritize the inputs and seek the pertinent suggestions from expert system. The expert system was tested on a set of operational problems. It performed satisfactorily. As expected some problems could not be addressed simultaneously as they require contradictory solutions. The user was given the ability to modify the requirements so that a solution satisfying part of the requirements can be achieved.","PeriodicalId":309617,"journal":{"name":"Thirty-Sixth Southeastern Symposium on System Theory, 2004.
