This book introduces the concept of a hypothetical type of knowledge construction -- referred to as structural knowledge -- that goes beyond traditional forms of information recall to provide the base
Earlier investigations of optimal control problems utilized procedures that did not reveal important features of optimization problems for distributed parameter systems. This monograph explores the mo
These are exciting times for mathematics, science, and technology. One of the fields that has been receiving great attention is Chaos Theory. Actually, this is not a single discipline, but a potpourri
An introduction to information and coding theory at the graduate or advanced undergraduate level. It assumes a basis knowledge of probability and modern algebra, but is otherwise self-contained. The f
Translated from the Russian, this monograph is devoted to the main ideas and methods of the statistical theory of open systems. The six chapters address the evolution of entropy and entropy production
Excellent introduction treats 3 major areas: analysis of channel models and proof of coding theorems; study of specific coding systems; and study of statistical properties of information sources. App

The research detailed in this monograph was originally motivated by our interest in control problems involving partial and delay differential equations. Our attempts to apply control theory techniques
A series of lectures on the role of nonlinear processes in physics, mathematics,electrical engineering, physiology, and communication theory.From the preface:"For some time I havebeen interested in a
After World War II, communication and control engineering reached a high level of development. The next step may be the recasting and unifying of the theories of control and communication in the machi
This book serves both as a completely self-contained introduction and as an exposition of new results in the field of recursive function theory and its application to formal systems.
