This paper presents an optimization-based approach for active fault isolation in linear time invariant systems subject to additive disturbances which are bounded in intervals. We model the evolution of the system states ...

Currently, numerous proprietary communication technologies are used by emergency response personnel to ensure uninterrupted coordination and effective situational awareness, especially when the telecommunication infrastructure ...

Remote sensing is often a crucial part of cyber-physical and networked systems. Measurements taken at remote locations can both serve as monitoring tools as well as to inform control decisions. Over the past few years, a ...

Intentional Controlled Islanding (ICI) has been proposed as a corrective measure of last resort to split the power system into several sustainable islands and prevent cascading outages. This paper proposes a novel ICI ...

Cyber-physical systems are pervasive in today's society with applications ranging from critical infrastructure systems such as the power grid or water distribution network to industrial control systems. It is clear that ...

Grid-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs) are gaining increasing consideration over the last few years since their connection has been shown to improve the dynamic behavior of the power grid. However, existing ...

Indoor Air Quality monitoring is an essential ingredient of intelligent buildings. The release of various airborne contaminants into the buildings, compromises the health and safety of occupants. Therefore, early contaminant ...

Networks of smart cameras, equipped with on-board processing and communication infrastructure, are increasingly being deployed in a variety of different application fields, such as security and surveillance, traffic ...

This paper develops a performance index that can be used to find the optimal design parameters of the observer-based residual generator and adaptive threshold of a fault detection scheme for a class of nonlinear systems. ...

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), such as Water Distribution Networks (WDNs), deploy digital devices to monitor and control the behavior of physical processes. These digital devices, however, are susceptible to cyber and ...
