Youla-Kucera (YK) parametrization was formulated decades ago for obtaining the set of
controllers stabilizing a linear plant. This fundamental result of control theory has been used …

Part I deals with the mathematical preliminaries: numerical linear algebra; system theory;
stochastic processes; and Kalman filtering. Part II explains realization theory as applied to …

Identification of systems operating in closed loop has long been of prime interest in industrial
applications. The problem offers many possibilities, and also some fallacies, and a wide …

This paper presents the author's views on the development of identification for control. The
paper reviews the emergence of this subject as a specific topic over the last 15 years, at the …

Manufacturing equipment and scientific instruments, including wafer scanners, printers,
microscopes, and medical imaging scanners, require accurate and fast motions. An increase …

An overview is given of some current research activities on the design of high-performance
controllers for plants with uncertain dynamics, based on approximate identification and …

This article reviews the development of experiment design in the field of identification of
dynamical systems, from the early work of the seventies on input design for open loop …

This paper aims at introducing the reader to the various issues that arise in the development
of a coherent methodology for the development of robust control design on the basis of …

Some 20 years ago, formulae were presented for the set of all linear time-invariant
controllers stabilizing a linear time-invariant plant. This paper traces the development of …

In this article the author describes the development of system identification in the control
community as he has observed it over the last 30 years, both as a student of the subject …
