This paper presents a framework to deal with large systems, which cannot be handled as a whole. We propose to model them as a graph of interacting subsystems, and to base all processings on this factorization of the large system.
Keywords: distributed system, large-scale system, discrete-event dynamic system, diagnosis, state estimation, dynamic programming
