This book was released on 2013-03-04 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Networked Control Systems (NCS) is a growing field of application and calls for the development of integrated approaches requiring multidisciplinary skills in control, real-time computing and communication protocols. This book describes co-design approaches, and establishes the links between the QoC (Quality of Control) and QoS (Quality of Service) of the network and computing resources. The methods and tools described in this book take into account, at design level, various parameters and properties that must be satisfied by systems controlled through a network. Among the important network properties examined are the QoC, the dependability of the system, and the feasibility of the real-time scheduling of tasks and messages. Correct exploitation of these approaches allows for efficient design, diagnosis, and implementation of the NCS. This book will be of great interest to researchers and advanced students in automatic control, real-time computing, and networking domains, and to engineers tasked with development of NCS, as well as those working in related network design and engineering fields.

Although it is essential for autonomous intelligent robots to be able to navigate within dynamic worlds, the problem of motion planning in dynamic domains is relatively little understood compared with static problems.
Book Synopsis Collaborative Approaches for Cyber Security in Cyber-Physical Systems by : Theo Dimitrakos
Download or read book Collaborative Approaches for Cyber Security in Cyber-Physical Systems written by Theo Dimitrakos and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-02 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes cyber-security issues underpinning several cyber-physical systems and several application domains, proposing a common perspective able to collect similarities as well as depict divergences and specific solution methods. Special attention is given to those approaches and technologies that unleash the power of collaboration among stakeholders, in a field based often developed in isolation and segregation of information. Given the pervasively growing dependency of society on IT technology, and the corresponding proliferation of cyber-threats, there is both an imperative need and opportunity to develop a coherent set of techniques to cope with the changing nature of the upcoming cyber-security challenges. These include evolving threats and new technological means to exploit vulnerabilities of cyber-physical systems that have direct socio-technical, societal and economic consequences for Europe and the world. We witness cyber-attacks on large scale infrastructures for energy, transport, healthcare systems and smart systems. The interplay between security and safety issues is now paramount and will be even more relevant in the future. The book collects contributions from a number of scientists in Europe and presents the results of several European Projects, as NeCS, SPARTA, E-CORRIDOR and C3ISP. It will be of value to industrial researchers, practitioners and engineers developing cyber-physical solutions, as well as academics and students in cyber-security, ICT, and smart technologies in general.
Book Synopsis Towards Dependable Robotic Perception by : Anna V. Petrovskaya
Download or read book Towards Dependable Robotic Perception written by Anna V. Petrovskaya and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2011 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reliable perception is required in order for robots to operate safely in unpredictable and complex human environments. However, reliability of perceptual inference algorithms has been poorly studied so far. These algorithms capture uncertain knowledge about the world in the form of probabilistic belief distributions. A number of Monte Carlo and deterministic approaches have been developed, but their efficiency depends on the degree of smoothness of the beliefs. In the real world, the smoothness assumption often fails, leading to unreliable perceptual inference results. Motivated by concrete robotics problems, we propose two novel perceptual inference algorithms that explicitly consider local non-smoothness of beliefs and adapt to it. Both of these algorithms fall into the category of iterative divide-and-conquer methods and hence scale logarithmically with desired accuracy. The first algorithm is termed Scaling Series. It is an iterative Monte Carlo technique coupled with annealing. Local non-smoothness is accounted for by sampling strategy and by annealing schedule. The second algorithm is termed GRAB, which stands for Guaranteed Recursive Adaptive Bounding. GRAB is an iterative adaptive grid algorithm, which relies on bounds. In this case, local non-smoothness is captured in terms of local bounds and grid resolution. Scaling Series works well for beliefs with sharp transitions, but without many discontinuities. GRAB is most appropriate for beliefs with many discontinuities. Both of these algorithms far outperform the prior art in terms of reliability, efficiency, and accuracy. GRAB is also able to guarantee that a quality approximation of the belief is produced. The proposed algorithms are evaluated on a diverse set of real robotics problems: tactile perception, autonomous driving, and mobile manipulation. In tactile perception, we localize objects in 3D starting with very high initial uncertainty and estimating all 6 degrees of freedom. The localization is performed based on tactile sensory data. Using Scaling Series, we obtain highly accurate and reliable results in under 1 second. Improved tactile object localization contributes to manufacturing applications, where tactile perception is widely used for workpiece localization. It also enables robotic applications in situations where vision can be obstructed, such as rescue robotics and underwater robotics. In autonomous driving, we detect and track vehicles in the vicinity of the robot based on 2D and 3D laser range finders. In addition to estimating position and velocity of vehicles, we also model and estimate their geometric shape. The geometric model leads to highly accurate estimates of pose and velocity for each vehicle. It also greatly simplifies association of data, which are often split up into separate clusters due to occlusion. The proposed Scaling Series algorithm greatly improves reliability and ensures that the problem is solved within tight real time constraints of autonomous driving. In mobile manipulation, we achieve highly accurate robot localization based on commonly used 2D laser range finders using the GRAB algorithm. We show that the high accuracy allows robots to navigate in tight spaces and manipulate objects without having to sense them directly. We demonstrate our approach on the example of simultaneous building navigation, door handle manipulation, and door opening. We also propose hybrid environment models, which combine high resolution polygons for objects of interest with low resolution occupancy grid representations for the rest of the environment. High accuracy indoor localization contributes directly to home/office mobile robotics as well as to future robotics applications in construction, inspection, and maintenance of buildings. Based on the success of the proposed perceptual inference algorithms in the concrete robotics problems, it is our hope that this thesis will serve as a starting point for further development of highly reliable perceptual inference methods.
Book Synopsis Dependable Computing - EDDC-3 by : Jan Hlavicka
Download or read book Dependable Computing - EDDC-3 written by Jan Hlavicka and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-06-26 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of creating the European Dependable Computing Conference (EDCC) was born at the moment when the Iron Curtain fell. A group of enthusiasts, who were pre viously involved in research and teaching in the ?eld of fault tolerant computing in different European countries, agreed that there is no longer any point in keeping pre viously independent activities apart and created a steering committee which took the responsibility for preparing the EDCC calendar and appointing the chairs for the in dividual conferences. There is no single European or global professional organization that took over the responsibility for this conference, but there are three national in terest groups that sent delegates to the steering committee and support its activities, especially by promoting the conference materials. As can be seen from these materi als, they are the SEE Working Group “Dependable Computing” (which is a successor organizationof AFCET)in France,theGI/ITG/GMATechnicalCommitteeonDepend ability and Fault Tolerance in Germany, and the AICA Working Group “Dependability of Computer Systems” in Italy. In addition, committees of several global professional organizations, such as IEEE and IFIP, support this conference. Prague has been selected as a conference venue for several reasons. It is an easily accessible location that may attract many visitors by its beauty and that has a tradition in organizing international events of this kind (one of the last FTSD conferences took place here).
