A Framework for the Co-simulation of Engine Controls and Task Scheduling
To evaluate the impact of scheduling latency and task design on the performance of engine control applications, we developed a co-simulation framework, based on Simulink and an extension of the T-Res schedulin...

A Reconfigurable PID Controller
We survey the Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller variants and we switch them in runtime via reconfiguration, as the control requirements change. Depending on the PID variant, e.g. P, I, PI, PD, ...
