ABSTRACT

Thanks to the advent of inexpensive computing, it is possible to analyze, compute, and develop results that were unthinkable in the '60s. Control systems, telecommunications, robotics, speech, vision, and digital signal processing are but a few examples of computing applications. While there are many excellent resources available that focus on one

Fundamental System Concepts and Basic Ideas. Linear Vector Spaces and Matrix Algebra. Ordinary Differential and Difference Equations. Complex Variables and Transform Method. Integral Transform Methods. State Space Description of Dynamic Systems. Digital Systems, Z-Transforms, and Applications. Calculus of Variations. Linear Systems Response to Stochastic Inputs.
