Fractional positive linear systems
Tadeusz KaczorekThe purpose of this paper is to introduce a new class of fractional positive continuous‐time and discrete‐time linear systems.
Solution of 2D singular hybrid linear system
Lukasz SajewskiThe purpose of this paper is to study the 2D hybrid linear model, which is a method of describing both continuous‐ and discrete‐time dynamics in one system. Singularity of 2D…
ITAE optimal variable structure control of second order systems with input signal and velocity constraints
Aleksandra Nowacka‐Leverton, Andrzej BartoszewiczThe purpose of this paper is to design a new sliding mode control algorithm for the second order dynamic system subject to input signal and velocity constraints.
Parametrization of static output feedback controllers for Markovian switching systems and related robust control problems
Pavel Pakshin, Sergey SolovievThe purpose of this paper is to provide a parametric description (parametrization) of all static output feedback stabilizing controllers for linear stochastic discrete‐time…
Systemic and cybernetic knowingness: relating “(a)symmetry” and “subtleness”?: Project onto the contemporary complexity versus the information‐knowledge dynamics
Nicolae BulzThe purpose of this paper is to present research work on systemic and cybernetic knowingness: relating according to classical and original concepts: “(a)symmetry” and…
Symmetry of conjugate systems with anticipation and retardation
Eufrosina OtlacanThe paper refers to a pair of conjugate systems (master and slave systems) associated by the condition that the evolution of the first is function on its current state and on a…
On some properties of even‐symmetric and odd‐symmetric dynamical systems
Mieczyslaw JessaThe purpose of this paper is to demonstrate new properties of continuous‐ and discrete‐time dynamical systems.
On the controllability to the interval of the system governed by a hyperbolic equation
Dorota Bors, Marek MajewskiThe purpose of this paper is to present the sufficient condition for the controllability to the interval of the system defined by a nonlinear hyperbolic equation.
Turbulences and disorder in general systems theory
Pasqual Esteve‐Calvo, Miguel Lloret‐ClimentPrevious articles have studied the basic behaviour and structure of the systems‐linkage from several points of view and were interested primarily in the different objects which…
Static and dynamic complex models: comparison and application to chemical systems
Grzegorz Drałus, Jerzy ŚwiątekThe purpose of this paper is to present research in the area of the modeling of complex systems using feed‐forward neural network.
Selected MRP II Standard System requirements presented in Z‐notation
Marek J. GreniewskiThe purpose of this paper is to present the ability of Z‐notation to formulate formal requirements specification of huge application software based on an example of the…
System GAMMA: the directives of finite‐frequency identification
Ljubov Mikhailova, Albert AlexandrovThe purpose of this paper is to present the results in the area of modern computer‐aided control system design tools relating to system identification.
Emergence and development of grey systems theory
Sifeng Liu, Jeffrey Forrest, Robert ValleeThe purpose of this paper is to present the scientific background from which grey systems theory came into being, the astonishing progress that grey systems theory has made in the…
A new method to evaluate whether the data are suitable to GM model or not
Yong Wei, Dahong HuThe purpose of this paper is to introduce the new class ratio dispersion, the new smooth degree sequence and the comparison criterion of the new smooth degree and to propose the…
Application of C‐uncertain variables and systemic approach to resource distribution in a class of operation systems
Donat OrskiThe purpose of this paper is to determine and evaluate resource allocation algorithms for mixed‐structure operation systems with unknown parameters characterized by experts using…
Admission control in computer networks with uncertain parameters
Dariusz GąsiorThe purpose of this paper is to deal with a problem of admission control in computer networks when some of their parameters are uncertain. The case is considered when the most…
Production flow prototyping subject to imprecise activity specification
Grzegorz Bocewicz, Irena Bach, Robert WójcikThe purpose of this paper is to present research in the area of the applications of knowledge‐based and constraint programming (CP)‐driven methodology in production planning and…
Gordon Pask: exchanges between cybernetics and architecture and the envisioning of the IE
Gonçalo Miguel Furtado Cardoso LopesThe purpose of this paper is to study a series of exchanges between cybernetics and the arts, focusing on Pask's lifelong envisioning of the so‐called information environment…
Human re‐engineering for action: an enactive educational management program
Osvaldo García de la CerdaThe purpose of this paper is to show and explain an innovative educational program in management and engineering called “Human Re‐Engineering for Action” that provides the…
Software and viable systems development with “j‐Maps” models and learning conversations
Gary Boyd, Wojciech M. JaworskiThe purpose of this paper is to explain to educators and system developers the novel systemic instructional methodology and tools which the use to improve students' learning about…
Decision making algorithm for a class of two‐level manufacturing systems
Maciej Hojda, Jerzy JózefczykThe purpose of this paper is to deal with a decision‐making problem in a complex operation system. Two levels of the system are made up of two different decision problems, i.e…
Enterprise ethical climate changes over life cycle stages
Jernej Belak, Matjaž MulejLife cycle stages may see, result from, and/or cause, changes in culture and climate as the right‐brain attributes of both managers and their co‐workers. A four‐stage model is…
Computability and economic planning
Ionela Bălţătescu, Petre PrisecaruThe purpose of this paper is to clarify the presuppositions implied in a recent debate about the possibility of economic planning using computing models and to provide additional…
Fragmentary structure of global knowledge: constructive processes for interoperability
Michael Heather, Nick RossiterThe application of category theory to interoperability to increase understanding of the problems and to facilitate the development of practical tools for their solution.
