Bounded-Time Nonblocking Supervisory Control of Timed Discrete-Event Systems

Renyuan Zhang, Jiale Wu, Junhua Gou +2

Recently an automaton property of quantitative nonblockingness was proposed in supervisory control of untimed discrete-event systems (DES), which quantifies the standard nonblockin…

Quantitatively Nonblocking Supervisory Control of Discrete-Event Systems

Renyuan Zhang, Jiahao Wang, Zenghui Wang +1

In this paper, we propose two new nonblocking properties of automata as quantitative measures of maximal distances to marker states. The first property, called {\em quantitative no…

nonblocking supervisory control of discrete-event systems with infinite behavior

Ting Jiao, Renyuan Zhang, Kai Cai

In the supervisory control framework of discrete-event systems (DES) with infinite behavior initiated by Thistle and Wonham, a supervisor satisfying the minimal acceptable specific…

Supervisor Localization of Discrete-Event Systems with Infinite Behavior

Renyuan Zhang, Kai Cai

Recently we developed supervisor localization, a top-down approach to distributed control of discrete-event systems (DES) with finite behavior. Its essence is the allocation of mon…

Supervisor Localization for Large-Scale Discrete-Event Systems under Partial Observation

Renyuan Zhang, Kai Cai

Recently we developed partial-observation supervisor localization, a top-down approach to distributed control of discrete-event systems (DES) under partial observation. Its essence…

Characterizations and Effective Computation of Supremal Relatively Observable Sublanguages

Kai Cai, Renyuan Zhang, W. M. Wonham

Recently we proposed relative observability for supervisory control of discrete-event systems under partial observation. Relative observability is closed under set unions and hence…

Relative Coobservability in Decentralized Supervisory Control of Discrete-Event Systems

Kai Cai, Renyuan Zhang, W. M. Wonham

We study the new concept of relative coobservability in decentralized supervisory control of discrete-event systems under partial observation. This extends our previous work on rel…

Supervisor Localization of Timed Discrete-Event Systems under Partial Observation and Communication Delay

Renyuan Zhang, Kai Cai

We study supervisor localization for timed discrete-event systems under partial observation and communication delay in the Brandin-Wonham framework. First, we employ timed relative…

Supervisor Localization of Discrete-Event Systems under Partial Observation

Renyuan Zhang, Kai Cai, W. M. Wonham

Recently we developed supervisor localization, a top-down approach to distributed control of discrete-event systems. Its essence is the allocation of monolithic (global) control ac…

Delay-Robustness in Distributed Control of Timed Discrete-Event Systems Based on Supervisor Localization

Renyuan Zhang, Kai Cai, Yongmei Gan +1

Recently we studied communication delay in distributed control of untimed discrete-event systems based on supervisor localization. We proposed a property called delay-robustness: t…

Relative Observability of Discrete-Event Systems and its Supremal Sublanguages

Kai Cai, Renyuan Zhang, W. Murray Wonham

We identify a new observability concept, called relative observability, in supervisory control of discrete-event systems under partial observation. A fixed, ambient language is giv…

Supervision Localization of Timed Discrete-Event Systems

Renyuan Zhang, Kai Cai, Yongmei Gan +2

We study supervisor localization for real-time discrete-event systems (DES) in the Brandin-Wonham framework of timed supervisory control. We view a real-time DES as comprised of as…

Distributed Supervisory Control of Discrete-Event Systems with Communication Delay

Renyuan Zhang, Kai Cai, Yongmei Gan +1

This paper identifies a property of delay-robustness in distributed supervisory control of discrete-event systems (DES) with communication delays. In previous work a distributed su…
