An analytical approach for a dynamic cyber-security problem that captures progressive attacks to a computer network is presented. We formulate the dynamic security problem from the defenders point of view as a supervisory control problem with imperfect information, modeling the computer networks operation by a discrete event system. We consider a min-max performance criterion and use dynamic programming to determine, within a restricted set of policies, an optimal policy for the defender. We study and interpret the behavior of this optimal policy as we vary certain parameters of the supervisory control problem.

We consider malicious attacks on actuators and sensors of a feedback system which can be modeled as additive, possibly unbounded, disturbances at the digital (cyber) part of the feedback loop. We precisely characterize the role of the unstable poles
and zeros of the system in the ability to detect stealthy attacks in the context of the sampled data implementation of the controller in feedback with the continuous (physical) plant. We show that, if there is a single sensor that is guaranteed to be secure and the plant is observable from that sensor, then there exist a class of multirate sampled data controllers that ensure that all attacks remain detectable. These dual rate controllers are sampling the output faster than the zero order hold rate that operates on the control input and as such, they can even provide better nominal performance than single rate, at the price of higher sampling of the continuous output.
Modern applications of robotics typically involve a robot control system with an inner PI (proportional-integral) or PID (proportional-integral-derivative) control loop and an outer user-specified control loop. The existing outer loop controllers, ho
wever, do not take into consideration the dynamic effects of robots and their effectiveness relies on the ad hoc assumption that the inner PI or PID control loop is fast enough, and other torque-based control algorithms cannot be implemented in robotics with closed architecture. This paper investigates the adaptive control of robotic systems with an inner/outer loop structure, taking into full account the effects of the dynamics and the system uncertainties, and both the task-space control and joint-space control are considered. We propose a dynamic modularity approach to resolve this issue, and a class of adaptive outer loop control schemes is proposed and their role is to dynamically generate the joint velocity (or position) command for the low-level joint servoing loop. Without relying on the ad hoc assumption that the joint servoing is fast enough or the modification of the low-level joint controller structure, we rigorously show that the proposed outer loop controllers can ensure the stability and convergence of the closed-loop system. We also propose the outer lo
This paper identifies a property of delay-robustness in distributed supervisory control of discrete-event systems (DES) with communication delays. In previous work a distributed supervisory control problem has been investigated on the assumption that
inter-agent communications take place with negligible delay. From an applications viewpoint it is desirable to relax this constraint and identify communicating distributed controllers which are delay-robust, namely logically equivalent to their delay-free counterparts. For this we introduce inter-agent channels modeled as 2-state automata, compute the overall system behavior, and present an effective computational test for delay-robustness. From the test it typically results that the given delay-free distributed control is delay-robust with respect to certain communicated events, but not for all, thus distinguishing events which are not delay-critical from those that are. The approach is illustrated by a workcell model with three communicating agents.
We study the new concept of relative coobservability in decentralized supervisory control of discrete-event systems under partial observation. This extends our previous work on relative observability from a centralized setup to a decentralized one. A
fundamental concept in decentralized supervisory control is coobservability (and its several variations); this property is not, however, closed under set union, and hence there generally does not exist the supremal element. Our proposed relative coobservability, although stronger than coobservability, is algebraically well-behaved, and the supremal relatively coobservable sublanguage of a given language exists. We present an algorithm to compute this supremal sublanguage. Moreover, relative coobservability is weaker than conormality, which is also closed under set union; unlike conormality, relative coobservability imposes no constraint on disabling unobservable controllable events.
In this paper we study multi-agent discrete-event systems where the agents can be divided into several groups, and within each group the agents have similar or identical state transition structures. We employ a relabeling map to generate a template s
tructure for each group, and synthesize a scalable supervisor whose state size and computational process are independent of the number of agents. This scalability allows the supervisor to remain invariant (no recomputation or reconfiguration needed) if and when there are agents removed due to failure or added for increasing productivity. The constant computational effort for synthesizing the scalable supervisor also makes our method promising for handling large-scale multi-agent systems. Moreover, based on the scalable supervisor we design scalable local controllers, one for each component agent, to establish a purely distributed control architecture. Three examples are provided to illustrate our proposed scalable supervisory synthesis and the resulting scalable supervisors as well as local controllers.
