Many real world data and processes have a network structure and can usefully be represented as graphs. Network analysis focuses on the relations among the nodes exploring the properties of each network. We introduce a method for measuring the strength of the relationship between two nodes of a network and for their ranking. This method is applicable to all kinds of networks, including directed and weighted networks. The approach extracts dependency relations among the network's nodes from the structure...
Recent advances in technology have enabled the development of low cost, low power and multi functional wireless sensing devices. These devices are networked through setting up a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). Sensors that form a WSN are expected to be remotely deployed in large numbers and to self-organize to perform distributed sensing and acting tasks. WSNs are growing rapidly in both size and complexity, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to develop and investigate such large and complex...
An acquaintance network is a social structure made up of a set of actors and the ties between them. These ties change dynamically as a consequence of incessant interactions between the actors. In this paper we introduce a social network model called the Interaction-Based (IB) model that involves well-known sociological principles. The connections between the actors and the strength of the connections are influenced by the continuous positive and negative interactions between the actors and, vice...
The paper introduces a method of mathematical modeling of high scale road traffic networks, where a new special hypermatrix structure is intended to be used. The structure describes the inner-inner, inner-outer and outer-outer relations, and laws of a network area. The research examines the nonlinear equation system. The analysed model can be applied to the testing and planning of large-scale road traffic networks and the regulation of traffic systems. The elaborated model is in state space form,...
This paper deals with the problem of designing Nash equilibrium points in noncooperative games in which agents anticipate values of Lagrange multipliers coordinating their payoff functions. The addressed model of agents' interactions, referred to as the price-anticipation game, is studied within the framework of coordination and mechanism design theory for hierarchical systems. Sufficient conditions are formulated for Nash implementation of a regular and isolated solution to a coordination problem....
The problem of designing realistic decentralized controller to solve a servomechanism problem in the framework of “large scale systems” is considered in this paper. As any large scale system is built by expanding construction of one subsystem being connected to the existing system. In particular, it is desired to find a local stabilizing controller in terms of a free parameter (belonging to the ring of proper stable transfer functions) so that desirable properties of the controlled system, such...
The paper deals with the synthesis of a non-fragile state controller with reduced design complexity for a class of continuous-time nonlinear delayed symmetric composite systems. Additive controller gain perturbations are considered. Both subsystems and interconnections include time-delays. A low-order control design system is first constructed. Then, stabilizing controllers with norm bounded gain uncertainties are designed for the control design system using linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) for...
We address the secure control issue of networked non-affine nonlinear systems under denial of service (DoS) attacks. As for the situation that the system information cannot be measured in specific period due to the malicious DoS attacks, we design a neural networks (NNs) state observer with switching gain to estimate internal states in real time. Considering the error and dynamic performance of each subsystem, we introduce the recursive sliding mode dynamic surface method and a nonlinear gain function...
In the paper there is discussed a problem of the resource allocation in a large scale system in the presence of the resource shortages. The control task is devided into two levels, with the coordinator on the upper level and local controllers on the lower one. It is assumed that they have different information. The coordinator has an information on mean values of users demands, an inflow forecast and an estimation of the resource amount in a storage reservoir. On the basis on this information it...
This paper is concerned with the problem of global state regulation by output feedback for large-scale uncertain nonlinear systems with time delays in the states and inputs. The systems are assumed to be bounded by a more general form than a class of feedforward systems satisfying a linear growth condition in the unmeasurable states multiplying by unknown growth rates and continuous functions of the inputs or delayed inputs. Using the dynamic gain scaling technique and choosing the appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii...
We propose a general reduced-order filtering strategy adapted to Unscented Kalman Filtering for any choice of sampling points distribution. This provides tractable filtering algorithms which can be used with large-dimensional systems when the uncertainty space is of reduced size, and these algorithms only invoke the original dynamical and observation operators, namely, they do not require tangent operator computations, which of course is of considerable benefit when nonlinear operators are considered....
