A Case Study on Formal Verification of Self-Adaptive Behaviors in a Decentralized System
, 2012 Self-adaptation is a promising approach to manage the complexity of modern software systems. A self-adaptive system is able to adapt autonomously to internal dynamics and changing conditions in the environment to achieve particular quality goals.

Fractional Power Control for Decentralized Wireless Networks
, 2007 We consider a new approach to power control in decentralized wireless networks, termed fractional power control (FPC). Transmission power is chosen as the current channel quality raised to an exponent -s, where s is a constant between 0 and 1.

Optimal Control of Two-Player Systems with Output Feedback [PDF]
, 2015 In this article, we consider a fundamental decentralized optimal control problem, which we call the two-player problem. Two subsystems are interconnected in a nested information pattern, and output feedback controllers must be designed for each subsystem.

Multifunctional Fluidic Units for Emergent, Responsive Robotic Behaviors
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A multifunctional reconfigurable fluidic unit can be used as sensor, valve and actuator is presented. A unique configuration combines the features of the three components as a Responsive self‐oscillating actuator. The remarkable versatility of the fluidic unit is demonstrated by building different robots with the same fluidic units only by varying ...
