Control Theory is a field of applied mathematics and engineering that deals with the basic principles underlying the analysis and design of control systems. "Controlling a system" means to influence the behavior of the system in order to achieve a desired goal. Control theory deals with the use of a controller to achieve this purpose. Control theory has been recognized as a mathematical subject since the 1960's; it has contributed to scientific and technological progress in many areas over the last few decades. Control theory has been extensively used in modern society, from simple applications such as temperature devices to sophisticated systems in space flight. The aim of this book is to solve different problems concerning control systems. This book joins a number of recent works in control theory and is useful as a source for researchers in this field concerning control systems.

Francisco Miranda was born on April 1, 1975 in Viana do Castelo, Portugal. He graduated in Mathematics from University of Coimbra in 1999. Having done research on Control Theory he earned his MSc (2003) and PhD (2008) degrees in Applied Mathematics from University of Porto. His research interests focus on stabilization and observability of control systems, optimal control, guidance control, numerical methods of stabilizer construction, and time scales. Currently, he is Associate Professor, Vice Director of School of Technology and Management and Mathematics Department Head at the Polytechnic Institute of Viana do Castelo, Portugal. He is also researcher in Center for Research and Development in Mathematics and Applications, University of Aveiro, Portugal.
