Feedback Control of Computing Systems (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This is the first practical treatment of the design and application of feedback control of computing systems. MATLAB files for the solution of problems and case studies accompany the text throughout. The book discusses information technology examples, such as maximizing the efficiency of Lotus Notes. This book results from the authors' research into the use of control theory to model and control computing systems. This has important implications to the way engineers and researchers approach different resource management problems. This guide is well suited for professionals and researchers in information technology and computer science.

Rezensionen

"..does excel at familiarizing computer scientists and practitioners with control-theoretic concepts and the idea of feedback...greatly enhanced by the exercises and extended examples." (IEEE Control Systems Magazine, April 2007) "The book is intensely practical...interesting and useful..." (Computing Reviews.com, January 10, 2005)
