Internet traffic is increasing by at least 200% per year and the world's largest Internet Service Provider expects traffic on its regional trunks to grow to a 1-10 petabit range over the next four to five years.
A common sense of time among the elements of a distributed measurement and control system allows the use of new techniques in solving problems with complex synchronization requirements or arising from the interaction of many sensors and actuators.
Process Modelling for Control concentrates on the modelling steps underlying a successful control design, answering questions like:How should I carry out the identification of my process to obtain a good model?
Recent developments in constrained control and estimation have created a need for this comprehensive introduction to the underlying fundamental principles.
The extraordinary development of digital computers (microprocessors, microcontrollers) and their extensive use in control systems in all fields of applications has brought about important changes in the design of control systems.
