Control of Communication Networks Using Infinitesimal Perturbation Analysis of Stochastic Fluid Models
Managing and operating large scale communication networks is a challenging task and it is only expected to get worse as networks grow larger. The... -
Robust Controller Design for AQM and $\mathcal{H}^{\infty}$ -Performance Analysis
Active Queue Management (AQM) has recently been proposed in [1] to support the end-to-end congestion control for TCP traffic regulation on the... -
An Introduction to Nonlinear Fault Diagnosis with an Application to a Congested Internet Router
We aim at extending a recent linear theory on fault diagnosis [8, 9] to nonlinear systems by utilising, like Staroswiecki et al. [39], and Diop et... -
Position and Force Tracking in Bilateral Teleoperation
A teleoperator is a dual robot system in which a remote slave robot tracks the motion of a master robot, which is, in turn, commanded by a human... -
On the Optimization of Load Balancing in Distributed Networks in the Presence of Delay
Distributing the total computational load across available processors is referred to as load balancing in the literature. A typical distributed... -
