This compact and uniform textbook presents the contemporary state of the art of control theory and its applications. It introduces traditional problems that are useful in the automatic control of technical processes, as well as current issues such as decision taking in conditions of uncertainty, use of artificial intelligence methods, or control of complex operations. The methods covered are introduced in a practice-oriented way that allows the reader to easily apply them for the determination of decision algorithms in computer control and management systems. This concise textbook is aiming at students of automation, robotics, control engineering, and computer sciences.

From the reviews:
"The exposure of the material is highly systematic and the flow of the main ideas is coherent, easy to follow, and prudently organized. The writing is lucid and concise. . The monograph would be definitely of significant interest to researchers, practitioners, and graduate students. The strong algorithmic flavour would appeal to all those interested in the applied side of the area. . All in all, this is a highly welcome and timely research monograph . ."
