Contemporary Linear Systems

This is a title in the PWS series "BookWare Companion Series". It is a set of correlated, self-contained courseware modules covering fundamental concepts in engineering and applied mathematics. Students work through example problems electronically, and are encouraged to experiment with problems and data in an electronic lab setting. Each "BookWare Companion" features a software script for the electronic examples, based on a popular applications software package for the IBM PC or the Macintosh, and a printed volume containing computer-based exploration exercises and a variety of learning aids and hints. The text - bolstered by illustrative examples, 200 problems and MATLAB exploration exercises on the accompanying data disk - should enable students to work with linear systems problems in a virtual laboratory at the computer, changing problem values at will in a "what-if" fashion.
