Changes in technology, economy and society create challenges that force us to rethink the way we develop systems. Model- Based systemsengineering is an approach that can prove catalytic in this new era of systems development. In this paper we introduce the idea of the “modeling hub” in order to realize the vision of Model-Based systemsengineering and especially we focus on the trade-off path of this hub. For that purpose the design capabilities of SysML are extended by integrating it with Consol-Optcad, a powerful multi-criteria optimization tool for trade-off analysis. The integration and its implementation is applied to analyze a multi-criteria optimization problem concerning power allocation and scheduling in a microgrid.
This paper explores the modelling capacities of a new class of P systems, called kernel P systems (kP systems). A specific language for describing kP systems and its translation into Promela, the specification languag...

We study supervisor localization for real-time discrete-event systems (DES) in the Brandin-Wonham timed supervisory control framework. We view a real-time DES as comprised of asynchronous agents which are coupled through imposed logical and temporal specifications;the essence of supervisor localization is the decomposition of monolithic (global) control action into local control strategies for the individual agents. This study extends our previous work on supervisor localization for untimed DES, in that monolithic timed control action typically includes not only disabling action as in the untimed case, but also "clock preempting" action which enforces prescribed temporal behavior. The latter action is executed by a class of special events, called "forcible" events;and accordingly, we localize monolithic preemptive action with respect to these events. We demonstrate the new features of timed supervisor localization on a manufacturing cell case study, and discuss a distributed control implementation.

We theoretically and experimentally demonstrate the existence of complete surface acoustic wave band gaps in surface phonon-polariton phononic crystals, in a completely monolithic structure formed from a two-dimensional honeycomb array of hexagonal shape domain-inverted inclusions in single crystal piezoelectric Z-cut lithium niobate. The band gaps appear at a frequency of about twice the Bragg band gap at the center of the Brillouin zone, formed through phonon-polariton coupling. The structure is mechanically, electromagnetically, and topographically homogeneous, without any physical alteration of the surface, offering an ideal platform for many acoustic wave applications for photonics, phononics, and microfluidics.
