      Comparison of a nonlinear adaptive controller with certainty-equivalence type adaptive controllers 

      Zhang, Youping; Ioannou, Petros A. (IEEE, 1995)
      Recently a new class of adaptive controllers for linear time invariant minimum phase plants has been proposed and analyzed. The design of these controllers is based on nonlinear tools and appears to be different from that ...

      Mean-field semantics for a process calculus for spatially-explicit ecological models 

      Toro, Mauricio; Philippou, Anna; Arboleda, S.; Puerta, M.; Vélez S, C. M. (Open Publishing Association, 2016)
      We define a mean-field semantics for S-PALPS, a process calculus for spatially-explicit, individual-based modeling of ecological systems. The new semantics of S-PALPS allows an interpretation of the average behavior of a ...

      On confluence in the π-caleulus 

      Philippou, Anna; Walker, D. (1997)
      An account of the basic theory of confluence in the 7r-calculus is presented, techniques for showing confluence of mobile systems are given, and the utility of some of the theory presented is illustrated via an analysis ...

      On sharing and determinacy in concurrent systems 

      Philippou, Anna; Walker, D. (1995)
      The relationship between sharing and determinacy in concurrent systems is studied. Syntactic conditions on programs of a concurrent object language are isolated and it is established, on the basis of two different semantic ...

      On transformations of concurrent object programs 

      Philippou, Anna; Walker, D. (1996)
      Transformation rules which increase the scope for concurrent activity within systems prescribed by programs of concurrent object languages are given. The correctness of the rules is proved using a semantic definition by ...

      Piecewise linear emulator of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and the resulting analytic solutions for Bose-Einstein condensates 

      Theodorakis, Stavros (2003)
      A most general method for finding very good analytic approximate solutions to the cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation is presented. This method applies whenever the nonlinearity in that equation is a purely cubic one. It ...

      Portable parallel implementation of two novel mathematical biology algorithms in ZPL 

      Dikaiakos, Marios D.; Manoussaki, Daphne; Lin, Calvin; Woodward, Diana E. (ACM, 1995)
      This paper shows that mathematical models of biological pattern formation are ideally suited to data parallelism. We present two new algorithms, one for simulating the dynamic structure of fibroblasts, and the other for ...

      A process calculus for dynamic networks 

      Kouzapas, D.; Philippou, Anna (2011)
      In this paper we propose a process calculus framework for dynamic networks in which the network topology may change as computation proceeds. The proposed calculus allows one to abstract away from neighborhood-discovery ...
