Technology of Automatic Control Systems

Automatic control systems, wherein a variable quantity is made to conform to a predetermined level, have been in use for several centuries; but, as with much technological development, the most rapid advances have taken place during recent years. Advantages commonly attributed to automation include higher production rates and increased productivity, more efficient use of materials, better product quality, improved safety, shorter workweeks for labour, and reduced factory lead times. This book presents the fundamental principles and challenges encountered in the automatic control of systems, providing practical solutions and signifying alternatives.
