by Panos J Antsaklis

Published 1 January 1997
This postgraduate introduction to systems theory emphasizes control theory, and provides a clear picture of the dynamic behaviour of linear systems and their advantages/limitations. Previous knowledge required is kept to a minimum, namely ordinary differential equations and linear algebra. Topics include: time-varying, time invariant, continuous-time, and discrete-time linear systems; stability; polynomial fractional representation; and parameterization of all feedback stabilizing controllers.
