This paper studies the problem of state estimation for jump Markov linear systems with uncompensated biases. By describing the state and the measurement biases as additive random variables, a suboptimal filter has been developed by applying the basic interacting multiple model (IMM) approach. To derive a precise representation of the biases contributions to the state estimation, three auxiliary matrices are introduced with respect to the correlation between the state estimation errors and the biases, which helps to derive mode-conditioned estimates in the framework of the IMM. A numerical example involving tracking a maneuvering target is provided to compare the performance of the proposed filter with that of the augmented state filter.

Students tend to retain naive understandings of concepts such as energy and force even after completing physics lessons in science classes. We developed a learning environment called the Virtual Physics System (ViPS) to help students master these concepts in the context of pulleys, a class of simple machines that are difficult to construct and experiment with in the real world. Several features make ViPS unique: it combines simulation and tutoring, it customizes tutoring to address common misconceptions and it employs a pedagogical strategy that identifies student misconceptions and guides students in solving problems through virtual experimentation. This paper describes the ViPS system and studies in which we evaluated its efficacy. Our results indicate that ViPS is effective in helping students learn and overcome their misconceptions.

Cloud computing will be a main informa- tion infrastructure in the future; it consists of many large datacenters which are usually geographically distributed and heterogeneous. How to design a secure data access for cloud computing platform is a big challenge. In this paper, we propose a secure data access scheme based on identity-based encryption and biometric authentication for cloud computing. Firstly, we describe the security concern of cloud computing and then propose an integrated data access scheme for cloud computing, the procedure of the proposed scheme include parameter setup, key distribu- tion, feature template creation, cloud data processing and secure data access control. Finally, we compare the pro- posed scheme with other schemes through comprehensive analysis and simulation. The results show that the pro- posed data access scheme is feasible and secure for cloud computing.

In this paper, we consider a two-dimensional (2-D) formation problem for multi-agent systems subject to switching topologies that dynamically change along both a finite time axis and an infinite iteration axis. We present a distributed iterative learning control (ILC) algorithm via the nearest neighbor rules. By employing the 2-D approach, we develop both the asymptotic and exponentially fast convergence of our formation ILC, which can be guaranteed by conditions in terms of the spectral radius and the matrix norms, respectively.
Virtual machine (VM) based state machine approaches, i.e. VM replication, provide high availability without source code modifications, unfortunately, existing VM replication approaches suffer from excessive replicatio...
