Regulator; IV. Extensions to More Complex Problems; and V. Computational Aspects. Two appendices in Matrix and System Theory are presented. Glancing over the chapter headings will confirm what the parts' titles indicate: this is not a book on system theory; neither is it a book on optimization theory, in general. As a matter of fact, it is not even a book on optimal control theory for linear systems. However, in spite of the above statements, Anderson and Moore's Linear Optimal Control is perhaps the best introduction to optimal control theory available today. This is true for several reasons. The book covers an important part of control theory, namely, Linear Optimal Control Theory; it relates optimal control theory to classical control theory; it extends results of linear optimd systems to some important but specific nonlinear systems; and by restricting the mathematical derivation to the use of the Hamilton-Jacoby Theory, it is reasonably self-contained. There is also the need for a second course on optimization methods for those interested in optimal control; this second course might either stress the mathematical aspects of optimization or emphesize other techniques and proble
