Dynamics of opinion formation under majority rules on complex social networks by Nguyen, Vu Xuan, Xiao, Gaoxi, Xu, Xin-Jian, Wu, Qingchu, Xia, Cheng-Yi

“…We study opinion dynamics on complex social networks where each individual holding a binary opinion on a certain subject may change her/his mind to match the opinion of the majority. Two rules of interactions between individuals, termed as classic majority and influence majority rules, respectively, are imposed on the social networks. …”

A novel design of flag sequences for low-complexity delay-doppler estimation by Meng, Lingsheng, Guan, Yong Liang, Ge, Yao, Liu, Zilong

“…Motivated by the high AF sidelobes of the existing Flag sequences, we propose to minimize the customized weighted integrated sidelobe level (CWISL) with the aid of an Accelerated Partially Majorization-Minimization Algorithm (APMMA). Numerical results demon-strate that our optimized Flag sequences have lower CWISL and peak sidelobe level (PSL) in the delay-Doppler zone of interest.…”

Improvement of control function for energy management system by Chakaravarthi Narasimman Srivathsan

“…The technique followed to optimise the control function of the energy management system is by narrowing the outlook to the area of major energy consumption. The chiller is responsible for the majority of power consumption in the ACMV system, which in turn makes it the single largest contributor to the energy loss. …”

Maximally permissive coordinated distributed supervisory control of nondeterministic discrete-event systems by Su, Rong., Schuppen, Jan H. van., Jacobus E., Rooda.

“…In supervisor synthesis for discrete-event systems achieving nonblockingness is a major challenge for a large system. To overcome it we present an approach to synthesize a deterministic coordinated distributed supervisor under partial observation, where the plant is modeled by a collection of nondeterministic finite-state automata and the requirement is modeled by a collection of deterministic finite-state automata. …”
