Control of Nondeterministic Discrete-Event Systems for Bisimulation Equivalence
2006
IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control
Nondeterministic specifications are also meaningful when the system to be controlled has a nondeterministic model due to the lack of information (caused for example by partial observation or unmodeled ...
Language equivalence is not an adequate notion of behavioral equivalence for nondeterministic systems, and instead we use the finest known notion of equivalence, namely the bisimulation equivalence. ...
Nondeterministic specifications are also meaningful when the system to be controlled has a nondeterministic model due to the lack of information (caused for example by partial observation or unmodeled ...

We employ the behavioral preorder termed partial bisimulation to define controllability for nondeterministic discrete-event systems. ...
We show that the equivalence relation, induced by the partial bisimulation preorder, can be employed to minimize the model of the unsupervised system. ...

A Small Model Theorem for Bisimilarity Control Under Partial Observation
2007
IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering
The paper addresses the issue of control of nondeterministic systems subject to nondeterministic specifications, under a partial observation of events. ...
The paper extends our prior result on decidability of bisimulation equivalence control reported in [7] , [8] from the setting of complete observations to that of partial observations. ...
INTRODUCTION We study the control of nondeterministic discrete event systems (DESs). The behavior of such systems contains information about the sequencing and also the nondeterministic branching. ...

A process-theoretic approach to supervisory control theory
2011
Proceedings of the 2011 American Control Conference
The new approach provides for a generalized characterization of controllability of nondeterministic discrete-event systems. ...
To this end, we investigate partial bisimulation preorder, a behavioral preorder that is coarser than bisimulation equivalence and finer than simulation preorder. ...
Other works tackle nondeterministic systems as a set of deterministic systems, by requiring controllability of all underlying deterministic systems to induce controllability of the nondeterministic system ...

Towards Supervisory Control of Interactive Markov Chains: Controllability
2011
2011 Eleventh International Conference on Application of Concurrency to System Design
We propose a model-based systems engineering framework for supervisory control of stochastic discrete-event systems with unrestricted nondeterminism. ...
To this end, we define a new behavioral preorder, termed Markovian partial bisimulation, that captures the notion of controllability while preserving correct stochastic behavior. ...

IFAC Proceedings Volumes
In particular, these transformations are used to reduce control problems for nondeterministic systems to control problems under partial observation for deterministic systems. ...

IFIP Advances in Information and Communication Technology
In the field of Security, process equivalences have been used to characterize various information-hiding properties (for instance secrecy, anonymity and non-interference) based on the principle that a ...
Non-safe equivalences, in this sense, include complete-trace equivalence and bisimulation. ...
