HYBRID SYSTEMS

Superconducting quantum circuits are a promising approach for realizations of large scale quantum information processing and quantum simulations. The Josephson junction, which forms the basis of superconducting circuits, is the only known nonlinear non-dissipative circuit elemen…

Hybrid inspection systems, those in which humans and computers work cooperatively, have found increased application in today's complex manufacturing and service systems, as evidenced by their widespread use in inspection applications (e.g., printed circuit boards, aircraft compo…

Many complex systems are hybrid in the sense that: (i) the state set possesses continuous and discrete components, and (ii) system evolution may occur in both continuous and discrete time. One important class of hybrid systems is that characterized by a feedback configuration of…
