A Case Study in Recovery of Drones using Discrete-Event Systems

Liam P. Burns, Dayse M. Cavalcanti, Felipe G. Cabral +4

Discrete-event systems and supervisory control theory provide a rigorous framework for specifying correct-by-construction behavior. However, their practical application to swarm ro…

Distributed Secret Securing in Discrete-Event Systems

Shoma Matsui, Kai Cai, Karen Rudie

In this paper, we study a security problem of protecting secrets in distributed systems. Specifically, we employ discrete-event systems to describe the structure and behaviour of d…

Collaboration or Corporate Capture? Quantifying NLP's Reliance on Industry Artifacts and Contributions

Will Aitken, Mohamed Abdalla, Karen Rudie +1

Impressive performance of pre-trained models has garnered public attention and made news headlines in recent years. Almost always, these models are produced by or in collaboration…

A Uniform Approach to Compare Architectures in Decentralized Discrete-Event Systems

K. Ritsuka, Karen Rudie

Solutions to decentralized discrete-event systems problems are characterized by the way local decisions are fused to yield a global decision. A fusion rule is colloquially called a…

Equivalence of Decentralized Observation, Diagnosis, and Control Problems in Discrete-event Systems

K. Ritsuka, Karen Rudie

This paper demonstrates an equivalence between observation problems, control problems (with partial observation), and diagnosis problems of decentralized discrete-event systems, na…

A Framework for the High-Level Specification and Verification of Synchronous Digital Logic Systems

Nick Mertin, K. Ritsuka, Karen Rudie

A syntactic model is presented for the specification of finite-state synchronous digital logic systems with complex input/output interfaces, which control the flow of data between…

Using Subobservers to Synthesize Opacity-Enforcing Supervisors

Richard Hugh Moulton, Behnam Behinaein Hamgini, Zahra Abedi Khouzani +3

In discrete-event system control, the worst-case time complexity for computing a system's observer is exponential in the number of that system's states. This results in practical d…

Decentralized Observation of Discrete-Event Systems: At Least One Can Tell

Stavros Tripakis, Karen Rudie

We introduce a new decentralized observation condition which we call "at least one can tell" (OCT) and which attempts to capture the idea that for any possible behavior that a syst…

Do What You Know: Coupling Knowledge with Action in Discrete-Event Systems

K. Ritsuka, Karen Rudie

An epistemic model for decentralized discrete-event systems with non-binary control is presented. This framework combines existing work on conditional control decisions with existi…

Limited Lookahead Policies for the Control of Discrete-Event Systems: A Tutorial

Richard Hugh Moulton, Anthony J. Marasco, Karen Rudie

Some problems in discrete-event systems (DES) model large, time-varying state spaces with complex legal languages. To address these problems, Chung et al. introduced limited lookah…
