A novel multi-tracking problem is introduced in multi-agent networks. The states of multiple agents in each subnetwork asymptotically converge to the same desired trajectory in the presence of information exchanges among subnetworks. A protocol with aperiodic sampled-data is proposed to achieve the multi-tracking of second order discrete-time multi-agent networks. The stability of dynamic systems...
In this paper, we study the optimal tracking performance problem of continuous-time linear multi-input multi-output (MIMO) networked control systems. The unstable and non-minimum phase systems is considered. The output feedback path is subject to quantization noise, additive white Gaussian noise and bandwidth constraints, and encoding and decoding are considered. The reference input is a random signal...
In order to enhance the understanding of important concepts and strengthen the awareness of software process, we designed a special project-practicing course in Nanjing University as an attempt to solve typical issues in these courses (e.g., focusing on aspects of software process, participation, limited time in a regular semester, etc.). The course is composed of 6-hour lecture and 32-hour bidding...
In this paper, we consider group consensus problem with switching topology by giving a kind of new protocol in which communication graph weights are all nonnegative. This is also consistent with classic protocols. The sufficient conditions which group consensus under this kind of protocols can reach for both single and second order multi-agent system are obtained. Finally, numerical examples are given...
Continued surveillance of post-marketing Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) is considered essential for patient safety, and Electronic Health Records (EHRs) serve as a critical source for identifying relevant information. But effective EHR knowledge discovery and data mining is not trivial because involved data usually have significantly different semantics among each other. Semantic technologies are believed...
In order to enhance the understanding of important concepts and strengthen the awareness of software process, students need to learn from their experiences in process-specific project practices. However, it's often difficult to design and carry out such practices in tertiary education environment. Typical challenges may include: 1) the difficulty to separate process-specific project practices from...
Recognized as one of the powerful technologies in software process engineering, Software Process Modeling (SPM) has received significant attention over the last three decades. Although empirical research plays a critical role in software engineering, the state-of-the-practice of empirical research in SPM has not been systematically reviewed. This paper serves as a status report of the assessment of...
Nowadays, many universities include Personal Software Process (PSP) into their software engineering curriculum. However, delivering PSP course in tertiary education environment always faces at least two challenges. Firstly, in a typical PSP course in education environment, one teacher may teach much more students than a typical PSP class in industry, hence it is extremely difficult to provide evaluation...
Process simulation has become a powerful technology in support of software project management and process improvement over the past decades. This research, inspired by the Impact Project, intends to investigate the technology transfer of software process simulation to the use in industrial settings, and further identify the best practices to release its full potential in software practice. We collected...
