Max-plus linear systems theory was inspired by and originated from classical linear systems
theory more than three decades ago, with the purpose of dealing with nonlinear …

In this paper, we tackle the performance safety enforcing problem in plants modeled by
timed event graphs that are a subclass of timed Petri nets. We assume that a malicious …

Based on the existing research work on the modeling and control of cyclically operated high-
throughput screening systems, this paper presents the scheduling and control of high …

Max-plus algebra is a suitable algebraic setting to model discrete event systems involving
synchronization and delay phenomena which are often found in transportation networks …

This paper presents the new investigations on the disturbance decoupling problem (DDP)
for the geometric control of max-plus linear systems. The classical DDP concept in the …

Linear systems over the max-plus algebra provide a suitable formalism to model discrete-
event systems where synchronization, without competition, is involved. In this article, we …

We study sparsity in the max-plus algebraic setting. We seek both exact and approximate
solutions of the max-plus linear equation with minimum cardinality of support. In the former …

Switching linear systems over the max-plus algebra can be used to model production plants
where different choices in resource allocation are possible. In such case, internal and …

This thesis introduces a novel approach to model the coordinated behaviour of fish robots
for underwater exploration. A shoal of three biomimetic vehicles is here considered, each …

This paper presents robust controllers solving the disturbance decoupling problem (DDP) of
a class of uncertain max-plus linear systems, whose system matrices vary between intervals …
