Synopsis

In this book, the author studies a class of optimal control problems, called discrete adaptive control, that are important in designing and operating engineering systems. The author shows that, for a certain class of systems, it is possible to use a simplified model to make good decisions, even though the true system is complex and uncertain. This result is significant because it provides a way to design control systems that are both effective and computationally efficient. The author also extends these results to a more general class of systems, including systems with time-varying parameters and systems with constraints on the control inputs. The book's approach is rigorous and mathematical, but the author does an excellent job of explaining the underlying concepts in a clear and concise way. This book will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in the fields of control theory, operations research, and economics.
