      Cabasino, M. P.; Giua, A.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N.; Seatzu, C. (2015)
      Fault identification studies in the Discrete Event Systems literature are typically model-based and require knowledge of the structure of the system, including the nature (and behavior) of the possible faults. In this paper ...

      Hodograph-type transformations 

      Sophocleous, Christodoulos (2003)
      We consider second-order evolution equations of the form ut = F1(u,ux)uxx+F2(u,ux) and third order of the form ut = F1(u,ux)u xxx+F2(u,ux,uxx). For each of these equations we construct point transformations which relate ...

      The increase of the instability of networks due to Quasi-Static link capacities 

      Koukopoulos, D.; Mavronicolas, Marios; Spirakis, Paul G. (2007)
      In this work, we study the impact of the dynamic changing of the network link capacities on the stability properties of packet-switched networks. Especially, we consider the Adversarial, Quasi-Static Queuing Theory model, ...

      Integer programs and valid inequalities for planning problems 

      Bockmayr, A.; Dimopoulos, Yannis (Springer Verlag, 2000)
      Part of the recent work in AI planning is concerned with the development of algorithms that regard planning as a combinato-rial search problem. The underlying representation language is basically propositional logic. While ...

      Optimal wavelength allocation and flow assignment in multiwavelength optical networks 

      Kabranov, O.; Makrakis, D.; Charalambous, Charalambos D.; Ionescu, D. (2001)
      Automatically Switched Optical Networks (ASON) require a control strategy that determines the optimal distribution of flows over different wavelengths. Such strategy will increase the profit, by allowing service providers ...

      Performance and stability bounds for dynamic networks 

      Koukopoulos, D.; Mavronicolas, Marios; Spirakis, Paul G. (2004)
      In this work, we study the impact of dynamically changing link capacities on the delay bounds of LIS (Longest-In-System) and SIS (Shortest-In-System) protocols on specific networks (that can be modelled as Directed Acyclic ...

      Quantization of FIR Filters Under a Total Integer Cost Constraint 

      Llorens, A. J.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N.; Ni, H. C. (2005)
      In this paper, we present computationally efficient algorithms for obtaining a particular class of optimal quantized representations of finite-impulse response (FIR) filters. We consider a scenario where each quantization ...

      Selecting Long Atomic Traces for High Coverage 

      Rosner, R.; Moffie, M.; Sazeides, Yiannakis; Ronen, R. (2003)
      This paper performs a comprehensive investigation of dynamic selection for long atomic traces. It introduces a classification of trace selection methods and discusses existing and novel dynamic selection approaches - ...

      Sensor selection for structural observability in discrete event systems modeled by petri nets 

      Ru, Y.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2010)
      This paper studies optimal sensor selection in discrete event systems modeled by partially observed Petri nets. The goal is to place a minimum number of sensors while maintaining structural observability, i.e., the ability ...

      Symbolic schedulability analysis of real-time systems 

      Kwak, Hee-Hwan; Lee, Insup; Philippou, Anna; Choi, Jin-Young; Sokolsky, Oleg (IEEE, 1998)
      We propose a unifying method for analysis of scheduling problems in real-time systems. The method is based on ACSR-VP, a real-time process algebra with value-passing capabilities. We use ACSR-VP to describe an instance of ...

      Temporal planning through mixed integer programming: A preliminary report 

      Dimopoulos, Yannis; Gerevini, A. (2002)
      Temporal planning is an important problem, as in many real world planning domains actions have different durations and the goals should be achieved by a specified deadline, or as soon as possible. This paper presents a ...

      Threshold counters with increments and decrements 

      Busch, Costas; Demetriou, Neophytos; Herlihy, M.; Mavronicolas, Marios (2002)
      A threshold counter is a shared data structure that assumes integer values. It provides two operations: Increment changes the current counter value from v to v+1, while Read returns the value [v/w], where v is the current ...

      Trace processors 

      Rotenberg, Eric; Jacobson, Quinn; Sazeides, Yiannakis; Smith, Jim (IEEE Comp Soc, 1997)
      Traces are dynamic instruction sequences constructed and cached by hardware. A microarchitecture organized around traces is presented as a means for efficiently executing many instructions per cycle. Trace processors exploit ...
