This dissertation describes a complete methodological framework for designing, modeling and optimizing a specific class of distributed systems whose dynamics result from the multiple, stochastic interactions of their constitutive components. These componen ...
Civil engineering projects typically involve a number of design phases, such as preliminary design, tender design and executive design. The required degree of accuracy for the analysis of the behaviour and strength of the structural members increases as a ...
This paper explores the contribution of systems modeling to the design and analysis of viability in service systems. We apply a modeling framework called SEAM (Systemic Enterprise Architecture Method) to gain an understanding of how a service system mainta ...

In real-time optimization, enforcing the constraints that need to be active is important for optimality. In fact, it has been established in the context of parametric variations that, if these constraints are not satisfied, the optimality loss would be O($ ...
Nematodynamics is the orientation dynamics of flowless liquid-crystals. We show how Euler-Poincar, reduction produces a unifying framework for various theories, including Ericksen-Leslie, Luhiller-Rey, and Eringen's micropolar theory. In particular, we sho ...
Rigorous system design requires the use of a single powerful component framework allowing the representation of the designed system at different levels of detail, from application software to its implementation. This is essential for ensuring the overall c ...
Ultrasensitive DNA detection using enhanced two-photon excited fluorescence: DNA detection systems formed on a highly regular gold nanopattern over a large area show enhanced sensitivity from high to ultralow concentrations (similar to 10-11 M, see figure) ...
Unresolved indirect branch instructions are a major obstacle for statically reconstructing a control flow graph (CFG) from machine code. If static analysis cannot compute a precise set of possible targets for a branch, the necessary conservative over-appro ...
This paper considers linear discrete-time systems with additive bounded disturbances subject to hard control input bounds and constraints on the expected number of state-constraint violations averaged over time, or, equivalently, constraints on the probabi ...
A novel framework for image inpainting is proposed, relying on graph-based diffusion processes. Depending on the construction of the graph, both flow-based and exemplar-based inpainting methods can be implemented by the same equations, hence providing a un ...
