Fault Localization Prioritization (FLP) aims at reordering existing test cases so that the location of detected faulty components can be identified earlier, using certain fault localization techniques. Although some researchers have proposed adaptive prioritization strategies with white-box code coverage information, such information may not always be available. In this paper, we address the FLP problem using black-box information derived from partitioning the input domain. Based on the well-known technique of Spectra-Based Fault Localization (SBFL), three test case prioritization strategies are designed following some basic SBFL heuristics. The implementation of these proposed strategies relies only on the partition information, and does not require any test case execution history. Experiments show that our strategies, when compared with pure random selection, result in a faster localization of faulty statements, reducing the number of test case executions required. Here, we analyze the characteristics and merits of the three proposed strategies.
The problem of determining whether a set of cubes can be orthogonally packed into a cube has been studied in 2-diminson, 3-dimension, and (d>3)-dimensions. Open questions were asked on whether this problem is NP-co...

This paper treats with the issue of disturbances, noises, uncertainties and sensor faults estimation for uncertain nonlinear systems whose nonlinearity satisfies the Lipschitz condition. The general idea of this approach is to establish an augmented model by supposing the sensor faults as an auxiliary state. In order to ensure the robustness of the proposed observer and guaranteed the convergence conditions, we have used the Lyapunov theory and the H ∞ criterion. So as to illustrate the design approach a control system of satellite attitude is presented.

End-to-end delay measurement has been an essential element in the deployment of real-time services in networked systems. Traditional methods of delay measurement based on time domain analysis, however, are not efficient as the network scale and the complexity increase. We propose a novel theoretical framework to analyze the end-to-end delay distributions of networked systems from the frequency domain. We use a signal flow graph to model the delay distribution of a networked system and prove that the end-to-end delay distribution is indeed the inverse Laplace transform of the transfer function of the signal flow graph. ~vo efficient methods, Cramer's rule-based method and the Mason gain rule-based method, are adopted to obtain the transfer function. By analyzing the time responses of the transfer function, we obtain the end-to-end delay distribution. Based on our framework, we propose an efficient method using the dominant poles of the transfer function to work out the bottleneck links of the network. Moreover, we use the framework to study the network protocol performance. Theoretical analysis and extensive evaluations show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

This paper reviews some main results and progress in distributed multi-agent coordination from a graph Laplacian perspective. Distributed multi-agent coordination has been a very active subject studied extensively by the systems and control community in last decades, including distributed consensus, formation control, sensor localization, distributed optimization, etc. The aim of this paper is to provide both a comprehensive survey of existing literature in distributed multi-agent coordination and a new perspective in terms of graph Laplacian to categorize the fundamental mechanisms for distributed coordination. For different types of graph Laplacians, we summarize their inherent coordination features and specific research issues. This paper also highlights several promising research directions along with some open problems that are deemed important for future study.

The Integral Quadratic Constraint (IQC) framework developed by Professor Yakubovich and his co-workers, see Yakubovich ***. (2004), is one of few available constructive tools for establishing robust stability of nonlinear systems. An explicit format of stability conditions, procedures for computing a Lyapunov function and developed libraries of IQCs for common nonlinearities in dynamics, all together have made the approach unique and at the same time so to say automatic for recovering stability conditions for many applications: in the process of analyzing a dynamical system, an engineer is just required to search for a suficiently rich set of IQCs describing nonlinearities in the dynamics so that such nonlinearities can be substituted in analysis by quadratic constraints, which they satisfy. The power of the methodology becomes also its weak part in an analysis of concrete systems. Searching IQCs is the dificult task in new examples, where a lack of a rich set of IQCs for concrete nonlinearities makes the method inconclusive or too rough to detect (in)-stability. The paper is aimed at a discussion of such an example of a nonlinear dynamical system (the classical 3-state Moore-Greitzer compressor model) augmented with the dynamical feedback controller, whose parameters should be adjusted to meet a stability condition. The closed-loop system has several nonlinearities and searching the corresponding IQCs to meet the stability conditions for this example is rather involved. To overcome the problem, we have previously described by different methods a set of parameters for which any solution of the closed loop system, if bounded, will converge to the origin and that the origin is locally asymptotically stable. However, the proof is incomplete without showing a boundedness of all solutions. To solve the task we have re-used some of the IQC framework ideas, where the method has been utilized and the corresponding IQCs have been found only for unbounded trajectories, if t
