The paper introduces the localization problem of sensor networks using relative position measurements. It is assumed that relative positions are measured in local coordinate frames of individual sensors, for which different sensors may have different orientations of their local frames and the orientation errors with respect to the global coordinate frame are not known. A new necessary and sufficient condition is developed for localizability of such sensor networks that are modeled as directed graphs. That is, every sensor node should be 2-reachable from the anchor nodes. Moreover, for a localizable sensor network, a distributed, linear, and iterative scheme based on the graph Laplacian of the sensor network is developed to solve the coordinates of the sensor network in the global coordinate frame.

According to the power model based on algorithm complexity, we analyze the power characteristic on both the algorithm level and micro-architectural level. Therefore, we propose a fusion power model that combines both algorithm level and micro-architectural level. We extract the time complexity and space complexity on the algorithm level, the CPI(Cycles Per Instruction) on the micro-architectural level as the variables of this fusion model. We use HMSim, a high accurate power simulator based on ARM7TDMI instruction set, as the experimental platform. After measuring the power of the some selected benchmarks from HMSim, we develop a linear regression method to get the fusion model's coefficient. Simulation results show that the power is a linear function of both time complexity and CPI of a algorithm, but no direct relations with the space complexity of the algorithm, the relative error is below 4%, which proves the accurate of this fusion model.

The topic of malware propagation in mobile wireless networks is gaining momentum among the research community, as actual vulnerabilities are revealed through recent outbreaks of worms. We introduce a defense strategy that quarantines the malware by reducing the communication range. This counter-measure faces us to a trade-off: reducing the communication range suppresses the spread of the malware, however, it also negatively affects the performance of the network as the end-to-end communication delay increases. We model the propagation of the malware as a deterministic epidemic. Using an optimal control framework, we select the optimal communication range that captures the above trade-off by minimizing a global cost function. Using Pontryagin's Maximum Principle, we derive structural characteristics of the optimal communication range as a function of time for two different cost functions.

In this paper we present the design, implementation and experimental validation of a FPGA based position servo controller for a DC motor with dry friction. VHDL and block diagram modules for trajectory generation, encoder signal decoding, PI controller and PWM control signal generation are described. The control system is implemented in the DE3 board of Terasic Technologies Inc using Quartus II environment of Altera Corporation. Servo system simulation was made using Simulink. The analytical non linear model for the anti-windup saturation on the integral control action, saturation on the actuator and dry friction is validated through experiments and simulations.

This paper proposes a model predictive control (MPC) approach for discrete-time jump Markov linear systems (JMLS) considering constraints on the inputs as well as on the expectancy of the states. Prediction equations for the first moment of the states are formulated, in which the dependencies on the inputs, on the expected values of disturbances, and on the current states are directly considered. For the computation of the matrices needed for predicting the first moment of the states, a recursive algorithm is presented. Finally, the prediction equations are used to formulate the MPC problem as a quadratic program (QP). Due to the recursive structure of the prediction equations and the formulation as a QP, the computational effort is low compared to existing approaches. Simulation results demonstrate the properties of the presented MPC approach and its capabilities of controlling large-scale JMLS online.

Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder and is associated with motor symptoms, including tremor. The DBS (Deep Brain Stimulation) involves electrode implantation into subcortical structures for long-term stimulation at frequencies greater than 100Hz. The mechanism by which chronic, electrical Deep Brain Stimulation with high frequency, suppresses tremor in Parkinson's disease is unknown, but might involve a gradual change in network properties controlling the generation of tremor. First, we performed linear and nonlinear analysis of the tremor signals to determine a set of parameters and rules for recognizing the behavior of the investigated patient and to characterize the typical responses for several forms of DBS. Second, we found patterns for homogeneous group for data reduction. We used Data Mining and Knowledge discovery techniques to reduce the number of data. Then, we found "clusters" the most well-known used and commonly partitioning methods used: K-means and K-medoids. To support such predictions, we develop a model of the tremor, to perform tests determining the DBS reducing the tremor or inducing tolerance and lesion if the stimulation is chronic.

Reliability prediction can provide basis for the identification of potential improvement area, cost control, and mission reliability assessment, etc. However, for complex equipment, there are many reliability influencing factors and incomplete knowledge of failure causes, which lead to a significant disparity between the predicted outcomes and the real values for traditional reliability prediction methods. To address the above issues, this research paper introduces an approach that utilizes the Support Vector Regression (SVR) model and Sand Cat Swarm Optimization (SCSO). To begin with, the sliding window technique is employed on the historical reliability data to generate time series samples, with the 5 adjacent data as sample data, and the sixth as label of the sample, and train SVR model on these samples; Second, the SVR model parameters are optimized using the ISCSO algorithm to obtain the optimal combination of parameters. In the testing stage, firstly, historical reliability data was used to predicted future data by the model, and the predicted data are then added to the sequence to form new samples, thus old data are discarded and new data are predicted continuously to realize continuous reliability prediction. Finally, the algorithm proposed in this paper is validated on a diesel engine reliability dataset. The algorithm proposed in this paper demonstrates its superiority through the Normalized Root Mean Squared Error (NRMSE) evaluation. The NRMSE of SVR-ISCSO is 8.86E-05, showcasing a remarkable 99.24% year-on-year decrease compared to the standard SVR. Additionally, it exhibits a 5.86% year-on-year decrease compared to SVR-SCSO, further validating the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Knowledge quality and usability is core to a fault diagnosis system. Frame knowledge technique has been used to represent knowledge in many information and expert systems. To simplify the complexity of knowledge representation in fault diagnosis expert system, a novel object-frame knowledge representation approach based on hierarchical model was proposed. In this approach, domain specific knowledge is expressed by combinations of object-frames. An Object-frame is composed by relevant state-object, test-object and rule-object or repair-object. Production rules are used to connect relevant objects' states. General features of object-frame and inference algorithm are introduced. Object-frame based knowledge items are stored in SQL database, inference engine performs the inference operation of knowledge using forward chaining strategy, implements reasoning, finds the cause of faults and gives repair suggestion driven by test data. Inference interpretation completes the task of explanation, which improved the clarity of reasoning. The advantage of this method is that we do not need knowledge representation language support. Experimental results show that the method proposed is effective, which improved the fault diagnosis and maintenance for a meteorological vehicle system.

In this paper, an input/output system identification technique for the Wiener-Hammerstein model and its feedback extension is proposed. In the proposed framework, the identification of the nonlinearity is non-parametric. The identification problem can be formulated as a non-convex quadratic program (QP). A convex semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxation is then formulated and solved to obtain a sub-optimal solution to the original non-convex QP. The convex relaxation turns out to be tight in most cases. Combined with the use of local search, high quality solutions to the Wiener-Hammerstein identification can frequently be found. As an application example, randomly generated Wiener-Hammerstein models are identified.
