Abstract:
|
The current research is focused on assessing the statistical robustness of synchronized network designs used to describe swamp behavior. Guidelines are developed for determining the necessary number of controllers (linkages) needed to maintain stable swamp behavior and the statistical sensitivity of such global systems to breakdowns induced via internal dynamic fluctuations arising from the decay of the controller connections. It is shown that the ability to predict long-term swamp synchronization correlates well with an initial spatial metric estimated at the start of the dynamic simulation process. Both the MATLAB Simulink and SPlus software packages where used to conduct the statistical investigations.
