Discrete stochastic process monitoring for large-scale distributed circuits

A motivation and basis for a new type of state space mapping which will find various applications, including power system control centers, is presented. The underlying principle involves the characterization of pertinent stochastic information in a three-dimensional manner. Traditionally, such information has been manipulated with two-dimensional approaches. Some features of the proposed framework are similar to electromagnetic monitoring schemes applied in optics and radar backscattering problems, with the exception that appropriate means for automatic control of the associated stochastic events are also provided
