IEEE SMC Magazine

The scope of the IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Magazine matches the technology areas within the Society’s Field of Interest (FoI). Article subjects include the integration of the theories of communication, control, cybernetics, systems engineering, human-factors engineering, as well as their application to the variety of systems including human-machine, biological, technological, and societal. The Magazine is intended to communicate to readers about the activities and actions of the SMC Society’s governing body, its Technical Committees, and its Chapters. Furthermore, the Magazine will offer educational material such as technical review papers, publish contributions on educational activities, industrial and university profiles, conference news, book reviews, and a calendar of important events.

Potential contributions must follow the guidelines set in the Information for Authors.

Foreign object detection in Social Internet of Things (SIoT) systems is a challenging task due to high positioning accuracy requirements, unbalanced samples, and interference from environmental features. So, this paper presents a DETR-based algorithm for environmental foreign object feature detection in SIoT systems. The algorithm addresses issues such as interference...

This article addresses the distributed consensus tracking of multiagent systems (MASs) under hybrid attacks, which are composed of denial-of-service (DoS) attacks and continuously occurring false-data-injection (FDI) attacks. To avoid the overuse of communication resources, a dynamic event-triggered condition is established with good flexibility to determine the necessary triggering instants. Based...

A smart building is an emerging technology that has the potential to be used in a variety of ubiquitous computing applications. The majority of existing work for smart building monitoring consumes a significant amount of energy to communicate the sensory data from the building to the end users (EUs). This...

The emerging fourth industrial revolution (industry 4.0) is leading the healthcare system toward more digitalization and smart management. For instance, recent digital healthcare solutions can help dentists/practitioners save time by managing their schedules and managing diagnosis and treatment. The proposed solution is a diagnostic module that can be integrated into...

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a venous reflux disorder disease caused by abnormal blood coagulation in the deep veins. It frequently occurs in the lower limbs of orthopedic patients, pregnant women, and the elderly. DVT can easily cause a pulmonary embolism (PE), a disease with a high mortality rate. Therefore,...

This article is devoted to improved disturbance observer-based optimal control of unknown linear systems via an identification method. A system matrix identification scheme is presented via input and output. An improved observer is established by introducing an extra parameter. An optimal control law with compensation is proposed by adaptive dynamic...

Intersection-level turning movement traffic flow prediction is critical for fine-grained traffic signal control and congestion management. Yet, existing approaches struggle in solving this due to the large number of predictive variables and the unclear intricate coupling relationships among them. In this article, we propose a hypothesis that exogenous factors (particularly...

Solar sails represent a novel class of spacecraft that has the potential to make a significant impact on the field of aerospace engineering. The inertia tensor parameters of a solar sail change during the process of orbit and deployment. Therefore, in order to achieve accurate control, it is essential to...

Flexible systems extensively utilized in mechanical engineering and aerospace applications require rapid robust stabilization within strict time constraints. This article presents a novel prescribed-time (PT) control design for Euler–Bernoulli beams affected by boundary disturbances. By integrating finite-dimensional backstepping (FB) techniques with a time-varying scaling function, we first develop a new...
