This paper discusses the algorithms for achieving global states and self-stabilization for communication protocols. It first describes a primary algorithm including its suitability for achieving global states and limitation of self-stabilization for communication protocols. and then presents an impr...

The concept of Cooperative Work Environment (CWE) is introduced. Three key elements of CWE, inforrration integration, process integration, and organization integration, are analysed. An application framework of CWE is prcoosed and with this framework a CE CWE based on Lotus Notes/Domino and Intel Pr...

There has been an increasing interest in integrating decision support systems (DSS) and expert systems (ES) to provide decision makers a more accessible, productive and domain-independent information and computing environment. This paper is aimed at designing a multiple expert systems integrated dec...

The fault detection problem for the nonlinear networked control system (NCS) with packet dropout and delay is investigated. A nonlinear stochastic system model is proposed to account for the NCS with random packet dropout and networkinduced non-uniformly distributed time-varying delay in both from s...

It is becoming increasingly difficult for Chinese citizens to access traditional public transport because of overcrowded community structures. Therefore, novel ideas are required to improve the transport system. In this respect, this study considers the design of a public transport scheduling model ...
