The Sierpinski brain (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
András, P. (2001, July). The Sierpinski brain. Presented at IJCNN'01: International Joint Conference on Neural Networks, Washington, DC, USA

The paper presents a new approach to the interpretation of chaotic neural activity. It is suggested that such activity forms neural objects represented as spatio-temporal firing patterns and the neural computations are performed through the interacti... Read More about The Sierpinski brain.

Active distributed monitoring for dynamic large-scale networks (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Liotta, A., Pavlou, G., & Knight, G. (2001, June). Active distributed monitoring for dynamic large-scale networks. Presented at ICC 2001. IEEE International Conference on Communications, Helsinki, Finland

Networks offering services of high availability and quality need to be carefully monitored. Their increasing size and complexity stresses the ability of currently used static centralized systems. Decentralized approaches are possible and a key issue... Read More about Active distributed monitoring for dynamic large-scale networks.

A modified generalised minimum-variance stochastic self-tuning controller with pole-zero placement (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zayed, A., Hussain, A., & Smith, L. (2001, December). A modified generalised minimum-variance stochastic self-tuning controller with pole-zero placement. Presented at IEEE International Multi Topic Conference, 2001, Lahore, Pakistan

The paper proposes a modified robust self-tuning controller, which minimises a cost function, incorporating system input, system output and set-point. It provides an adaptive mechanism which ensures that both the closed-loop poles and zeros are place...
