Spiking neural (SN) P systems are a class of distributed parallel computing devices inspired by the way neurons communicate by means of spikes. In this work, we investigate reversibility in SN P systems, as well as the computing power of reversible SN P systems. Reversible SN P systems are proved to have Turing creativity, that is, they can compute any recursively enumerable set of non-negative integers by simulating universal reversible register machine.

Inspired by the clonal selection theory together with the immune network model, we present a new artificial immune algorithm named the immune memory clonai algorithm (IMCA). The clonal operator,inspired by the immune system, is discussed first. The IMCA includes two versions based on different immune memory mechanisms; they are the adaptive immune memory clonal algorithm (AIMCA) and the immune memory clonal strategy (IMCS). In the AIMCA, the mutation rate and memory unit size of each antibody is adjusted dynamically. The IMCS realizes the evolution of both the antibody population and the memory unit at the same time. By using the clonal selection operator, global searching is effectively combined with local *** to the antibody-antibody (Ab-Ab) affinity and the antibody-antigen (Ab-Ag) affinity, The IMCA can adaptively allocate the scale of the memory units and the antibody population. In the experiments, 18 multimodal functions ranging in dimensionality from two, to one thousand and combinatorial optimization problems such as the traveling salesman and knapsack problems (KPs)are used to validate the performance of the IMCA. The computational cost per iteration is presented. Experimental results show that the IMCA has a high convergence speed and a strong ability in enhancing the diversity of the population and avoiding premature convergence to some degree. Theoretical roof is provided that the IMCA is convergent with probability 1.

Inspired by the fact that in most existing swarm models of multi-agent systems the velocity of an agent can be infinite, which is not in accordance with the real applications, we propose a novel swarm model of multi-agent systems where the velocity of an agent is finite. The Lyapunov function method and LaSalle's invariance principle are employed to show that by using the proposed model all of the agents eventually enter into a bounded region around the swarm center and finally tend to a stationary state. Numerical simulations are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Cyber-physical systems(CPSs) are integrations of networks, computation and physical processes, where embedded computing devices continually sense, monitor, and control the physical processes through networks. Networked industrial processes combining internet, real-time computer control systems and industrial processes together are typical CPSs. With the increasingly frequent cyber-attack, security issues have gradually become key problems for CPSs. In this paper, a cyber-physical system security protection approach for networked industrial processes, i.e., industrial CPSs, is proposed. In this approach, attacks are handled layer by layer from general information technology(IT) security protection, to active protection, then to intrusion tolerance and physical security protection. The intrusion tolerance implemented in real-time control systems is the most critical layer because the real time control system directly affects the physical layer. This novel intrusion tolerance scheme with a closed loop defense framework takes into account the special requirements of industrial CPSs. To illustrate the effectiveness of the CPS security protection approach, a networked water level control system is described as a case study in the architecture analysis and design language(AADL) environment. Simulation results show that 3 types of injected attacks can be quickly defended by using the proposed protection approach.

Rotor active magnetic bearing(rotor-AMB) systems are frequently used to alleviate vibrations for various applications such as in national defense, manufacturing industries, IC production, and aerospace engineering. One obstacle to improve machining efficiency and quality is the open-loop instability of rotorAMB systems during the machining process. We built a closed-loop processing platform using a spindle rotor installed with AMBs and thereby developed a rotor-AMB suspension system embedded with a dual-mode predictive controller(DMPC). The performance of the system is thus substantially improved. In the proposed DMPC, both model-based prediction and receding horizon optimization are utilized to guarantee the closedloop stability of the rotor-AMB suspension systems with input constraints. Finally, the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method are examined through substantial levitation experiments on a machining platform with installed AMBs.
