A New Genetic Approach for the Partitioning Problem in Distributed Virtual Environment Systems
2004
The Partitioning problem is a key issue in the design of Distributed Virtual Environment (DVE) systems based on a server-network architecture. This problem consist of efficiently assigning the clients of the simulation (avatars) to the system servers. Despite the existing literature proposes different evolutive approaches for solving this NP-hard problem, an approach based on genetic algorithms is considered as the current best partitioning mechanism.
Feasibility of FPGA accelerated IPsec on cloud
2018
Abstract Hardware acceleration for famous VPN solution, IPsec, has been widely researched already. Still it is not fully covered and the increasing latency, throughput, and feature requirements need further evaluation. We propose an IPsec accelerator architecture in an FPGA and explain the details that need to be considered for a production ready design. This research considers the IPsec packet processing without IKE to be offloaded on an FPGA in an SDN network. Related work performance rates in 64 byte packet size for throughput is 1–2 Gbps with 0.2 ms latency in software, and 1–4 Gbps with unknown latencies for hardware solutions. Our proposed architecture is capable to host 1000 concurre…
Sensorless induction machine drive for fly-wheel generation unit based on a TLS-based non-linear observer
2016
This paper proposes a sensorless technique for an induction machine Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) based on a non-linear observer integrated with a total least-squares speed estimator taking into consideration the IM (Induction Machine) saturation effects. The nonlinear observer is based on an original formulation of the dynamic model of the IM including the magnetic saturation, rearranged in a space-state form, after assuming as state variables the stator current and the rotor magnetizing current space-vectors in the stator reference frame. The choice of the observer gain has been made by the use of Lyapunov's method. The speed signal needed by the non-linear observer for the flux e…
Le filtre de Kalman étendu à grand-gain adaptatif et ses applications
2010
The work concerns the “observability problem”—the reconstruction of a dynamic process’s full state from a partially measured state— for nonlinear dynamic systems. The Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) is a widely-used observer for such nonlinear systems. However it suffers from a lack of theoretical justifications and displays poor performance when the estimated state is far from the real state, e.g. due to large perturbations, a poor initial state estimate, etc. . . We propose a solution to these problems, the Adaptive High-Gain (EKF). Observability theory reveals the existence of special representations characterizing nonlinear systems having the observability property. Such representations ar…
Gain-scheduled H-infinity observer design for nonlinear stochastic systems with time-delay and actuator saturation
2012
In this paper, we propose a method for designing continuous gain-scheduled robust H ∞ observer on a class of extended stochastic nonlinear systems subject to time delay and actuator saturation. Initially, gradient linearization procedure is applied to describe such extended nonlinear systems into several model-based linear systems. Next, a robust linear H ∞ observer is designed to such linear stochastic models. Subsequently, a convex hull set is investigated and sufficient condition is derived in terms of feedback observer to determine whether a given initial condition belongs to an ellipsoid invariant set. Finally, continuous gain-scheduled approach is employed to design continuous nonline…
Observer-based finite-time control for discrete fuzzy jump nonlinear systems with time delays
2013
This paper investigates the problem of observer-based finite-time H∞ control for a family of discrete jump nonlinear systems with time delays represented by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) model. The main contribution of this paper is to design an observer-based finite-time H∞ controller such that the resulting closed-loop system is stochastic finite-time bounded and satisfies a prescribed H∞ disturbance attenuation level over the given finite-time interval. Sufficient criteria on stochastic finite-time H∞ stabilization via observer-based fuzzy state feedback are provided for the solvability of the problem, which can be tackled by a feasibility problem in terms of linear matrix inequalities. A simulati…
Mutational Characterization of the Bile Acid Receptor TGR5 in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
2010
Background: TGR5, the G protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1), has been linked to inflammatory pathways as well as bile homeostasis, and could therefore be involved in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) a chronic inflammatory bile duct disease. We aimed to extensively investigate TGR5 sequence variation in PSC, as well as functionally characterize detected variants.Methodology/Principal Findings: Complete resequencing of TGR5 was performed in 267 PSC patients and 274 healthy controls. Six nonsynonymous mutations were identified in addition to 16 other novel single-nucleotide polymorphisms. To investigate the impact from the nonsynonymous variants on TGR5, we created a receptor mod…
Comments on “Finite-Time $H_{\infty }$ Fuzzy Control of Nonlinear Jump Systems With Time Delays Via Dynamic Observer-Based State Feedback”
2014
This paper investigates a defect appearing in “Finite-time H∞ fuzzy control of nonlinear jump systems with time delays via dynamic observer-based state feedback,” which the observer-based finite-time H∞ controller via dynamic observer-based state feedback could not ensuring stochastic finite-time boundedness, and satisfying a prescribed level of H∞ disturbance attenuation for the resulting closed-loop error fuzzy Markov jump systems. The corrected results are presented, and the improved optimal algorithms and new simulation results are also provided in this paper.
Observer-based stabilization of spacecraft rendezvous with variable sampling and sensor nonlinearity
2013
Published version of an article in the journal: Mathematical Problems in Engineering. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2013/902452 Open Access This paper addresses the observer-based control problem of spacecraft rendezvous with nonuniform sampling period. The relative dynamic model is based on the classical Clohessy-Wiltshire equation, and sensor nonlinearity and sampling are considered together in a unified framework. The purpose of this paper is to perform an observer-based controller synthesis by using sampled and saturated output measurements, such that the resulting closed-loop system is exponentially stable. A time-dependent Lyapunov functional is devel…
Sustainable Method Using Filtering Techniques for a Fermentation Process State Estimation
2020
Winemaking is concerned about sustainable energy availability that implies new methods for process monitoring and control. The aim of this paper is to realize a comparative analysis of the possibilities offered using estimation techniques, balances, and filtering techniques such as the Kalman filter (KF) and the extended Kalman filter (EKF), to obtain indirect information about the alcoholic fermentation process during winemaking. Thus, an estimation solution of the process variables in the exponential growing phase is proposed, using an extended observer. In addition, two estimation solutions of this process with the EKF and an estimation of the decay phase of the fermentation process are …
