Techniques of Model-Based Control

COLEMAN BROSILOW, a recognized leader in the process-control field, received the 1989 AICHE Computing and Systems Technology Division Award for 25 years of influential, pioneering work in simulation of complex chemical processes and model-based control. He is a founder of ControlSoft, Inc. and served as Chairman of the Board from its founding in 1985 to 2001. BABU JOSEPH is currently Edward D. Dicke Professor of Chemical Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis, where he teaches and does research in process control and related fields. He will be assuming the position of Chair, Chemical Engineering Department at the University of South Florida, in Tampa, in January of 2002. He is the author of Real Time Personal Computing (Prentice Hall) and co-editor of Wavelet Applications in Chemical Engineering (Kluwer-Academic). He has taught short courses for AIChE and is currently serving as a Director of the Computing and Systems Technology Division, on a three-year term. He can be found on the Web at joseph.wustl.edu
