About the Book
Ample information reflecting the state-of-the-art of the field of mathematics applied to the analysis and design of process control is presented in this volume. It includes recent results concerning new methodologies applied to technological systems, as well as non-conventional control techniques and the presentation of significant examples of implementation. R & D and Research laboratory participants, postgraduate students and engineers will all find this book to be invaluable.
