FOREWORD
The last decade has seen major advances in the theory and practice of control
engineering. New algorithms such as self-tuning regulators have been
panied by detailed convergence analysis; graphical work-stations allow a
designer to explore a wide range of synthesis methods; microprocessors have
enabled the practical realization of advanced control concepts. This growth of
techniques has meant that only a few universities with large departments could
train research students over the whole spectrum of control. Students in smaller
departments could specialize in their research topics yet fail to appreciate
developments in related areas.
