Max-plus linear systems represent a class of mathematical models where the conventional operations of addition and multiplication are replaced by maximisation and addition, respectively. This ...

We present a general framework for applying simulation to optimize the behavior of discrete event systems. Our approach involves modeling the discrete event system under study as a general state space ...

Semi-discrete models are a particular class of hybrid dynamical systems that undergo continuous dynamics most of the time but repeatedly experience discrete changes at some given moments. In the life ...
