The authors review the fundamentals of linear algebra and system theory, then discuss system discretization, system modeling, intermodel conversion, and systems identification. Proofs and derivations are kept to a minimum, while emphasis is placed on the utility of computer algorithms. The computer aided design software program L-A-S (Linear Algebra and Systems), used in examples throughout the book, is included on two disks for IBM compatibles. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
