Recent Developments in the Robustness Theory of Multivariable Systems. Proceedings of the ONR/MIT Workshop held April 25-27, 1979 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139.

Abstract

This report summarizes the recent developments in the Robustness Theory of Multivariable Systems. The motivation for the workshop was the dissemination and discussion of recent research results concerning the characterization of robust multivariable feedback systems, defined here as systems that perform satisfactorily despite differences between the mathematical model used for control synthesis and the actual dynamics, and the design of such systems. The report describes the motivation for the theoretical developments and the nature of the results that have been obtained. An introductory discussion of the papers presented at the workshop is provided; the papers themselves are included in an Appendix. Finally, the research directions identified in a roundtable discussion held at the end of the workshop are summarized.
