System Structure and Control 1998 (2-Volume Set) (IFAC Proceedings Volumes)

This was the fifth in the successful IFAC series of meetings entitled System, Structure and Control. Previous meetings were held in Praha (1982 and 1992), Nantes (1995) and Bucharest (1997).
All the invited sessions were accepted, and the final selection led to a total of 132 papers in the technical program. This consisted of 27 sessions over 3 parallel tracks for the 3 days of the conference.
The presentations covered a range of topics concerning the analysis and control of systems. These included new trends in time delay systems; linear, nonlinear, time-varying and periodic systems; stability; robustness; non integer differentiation in modeling identification and control; discrete events; dynamic systems; and applications.
