Control Theory in Physics And Other Fields of Natural Science Concepts, Tools, And Applications

"This book covers systematically and in a simple language the mathematical and physical foundations of controlling deterministic and stochastic evolutionary processes in systems with a high degree of complexity. Strong emphasis is placed on concepts, methods and techniques for modelling, assessment and the solution or estimation of control problems in an attempt to understand the large variability of these problems in several branches of physics, chemistry and biology as well as in technology and economics. The main focus of the book is on a clear physical and mathematical understanding of the dynamics and kinetics behind several kinds of control problems and their relation to self-organizing principles in complex systems. The book is a modern introduction and a helpful tool for researchers, engineers as well as post-docs and graduate students interested in an application oriented control theory and related topics."--BOOK JACKET.Schulz, Michael is the author of 'Control Theory in Physics And Other Fields of Natural Science Concepts, Tools, And Applications', published 2006 under ISBN 9783540295143 and ISBN 3540295143.
