Sánchez-Peña R.S., Casín J.Q., Cayuela V.P. (eds.) Identification and Control: The Gap between Theory and Practice

New York: Springer, 2007. — 334 p.This book meets head-on the difficulty of making practical use of new systems theory, presenting a selection of varied applications together with relevant theory. It shows how workable identification and control solutions can be derived by adapting and extrapolating from the theory. Each chapter has a common structure: a brief presentation of theory; the description of a particular application; experimental results; and a section highlighting, explaining and laying out solutions to the discrepancy between the theoretical and the practical.
