Feedback Control Of Computing Systems by Joseph Hellerstein, Dawn M. Tilbury, Yixin Diao, Sujay Parekh

Product Details

Synopsis

A tutorial for analysts and designers of computing systems and researchers in computer science and controls, who are familiar with series and their convergence at the level taught in undergraduate engineering and mathematics. Also useful but not required are familiarity with Z-transforms and with developing statistical models, especially using linear regression. It uses MATLAB, to which it provides an introduction, but only for the optional section at the end of each chapter, which precedes the exercises. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
