Samenvatting:

Most practical processes such as chemical reactor, industrial furnace, heat exchanger, etc., are nonlinear stochastic systems, which makes their con­ trol in general a hard problem.



Deterministic and Stochastic Time-Delay Systems provides professionals and advanced students in control engineering with the most recent results on deterministic and stochastic time-delay systems. It is an excellent text/reference for graduate level engineering students, or a reference for practicing control engineers, and researchers in control engineering. The control of uncertain systems has dominated the research effort of the control community during the last two decades. Some practical dynamical systems have time-delay in their dynamics, which makes their control a complicated task even in the deterministic case. The presence of time-delay in dynamical systems is a well-known case of instability and preference degradation.
