Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Control of Discrete-event Systems provides a survey of the most important topics in the discrete-event systems theory with particular focus on finite-state automata, Petri nets and max-plus algebra. Coverage ranges from introductory material on the basic notions and definitions of discrete-event systems to more recent results. Special attention is given to results on supervisory control, state estimation and fault diagnosis of both centralized and distributed/decentralized systems developed in the framework of the Distributed Supervisory Control of Large Plants (DISC) project. Later parts of the text are devoted to the study of congested systems though fluidization, an over approximation allowing a much more efficient study of observation and control problems of timed Petri nets. Finally, the max-plus algebraic approach to the analysis and control of choice-free systems is also considered. Control of Discrete-event Systems provides an introduction to discrete-event systems for readers that are not familiar with this class of systems, but also provides an introduction to research problems and open issues of current interest to readers already familiar with them. Most of the material in this book has been presented during a Ph.D. school held in Cagliari, Italy, in June 2011.…

About the Author
Manuel Silva Suárez is full Professor of System Engineering and Automatic Control in the Computer Science and System Engineering Department of the University of Zaragoza. He has been active in the area of discrete-event systems since the late 1970s, being (co)author of several books. He has published more than two hundred papers on modelling, analysis (verification and performance evaluation), synthesis (different kinds of control approaches) and implementation (eventually fault-tolerant) of Petri nets as well as a few on process algebras and their relation to net models and analysis techniques. Recently, he has been particularly interested in the fluidification of Discrete Event Systems. He has participated actively in the organization of more than one hundredinternational conferences related to automatic control, computer science and operations research, several of these (related to IEEE, IFAC, EATCS…) in Zaragoza. He has organized special tutorials days on discrete event systems modelling, analysis and control for many international conferences. He has been a member of the steering committees of conferences like: International Conference on Petri Nets and Other Concurrency Models; International Workshop on Discrete Event Systems (retiring as chairman in September 2010); IFAC International Conference on Analysis and Design of Hybrid Systems, he is/has been involved in editing journals in Europe (e.g., The European Journal of Control), USA (e.g., IEEE Transactions on Robotics and Automation and Discrete Event Systems), and Japan (IEICE Transactions On Fundamentals of Electronics, Communications and Computer Sciences).
Jan van Schuppen has been active in the area of control of discrete-event systems since the early 1980s. He has published many papers on control of distributed/decentralized discrete-event systems. He has twice presented a special topics course on control of discrete-event systems. Otherwise his research interests include system theory and systems identification, control of stochastic systems, control of distributed/decentralized systems, for many classes of deterministic and stochastic systems. He is affiliated with the research institute CWI in Amsterdam, The Netherlands and with the Department of Mathematics of the Delft University of Technology. He is currently Co-Editor of the journal Mathematics and Control, Signals, and Systems, was a Department Editor of the journal Discrete Event Dynamic Systems, and was an editor at large of the IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
