Description
This second edition contains two completely new chapters, corresponding to around 30% more content, so as to keep pace with advances in Internet and wireless communication technologies. It remains the must-have work covering the latest results on controlling the uncertainties of complex systems, as well as the theory behind real-world systems applicable to autonomous vehicles as well as biological and bio-mimic systems. Extensive appendixes coupled with problems and examples make this monograph equally useable as supplementary course reading or for self study.
