International Workshop on Robust Control, March 13-15, 1991,San Antonio, Texas

在过去的12年中，鲁棒控制已成为控制系统研究的中心焦点。该项目的目标是将国际领先的控制研究人员聚集在一起，评估快速发展的鲁棒控制领域的知识状况。特别是，多年来发展了一些独立的概念和数学方法。这些是h∞最优控制，基于Kharitonov定理和相关主题的参数鲁棒稳定性，l1最优控制，mu分析和定量反馈理论。本次研讨会将首次汇集这些领域的专家。这将产生思想的交叉融合，并导致更有效的方法来开发鲁棒控制问题的解决方案。考虑到这一点，计划举行一些全体会议和最后的小组讨论。在研讨会上发表的论文将以书籍的形式出版。本次研讨会的成果将在未来许多年对鲁棒控制的研究、教育和工程应用产生非常重要的国际影响。

Robust control has become the central focus of control systems research over the last 12 years. The objective of this project is to bring together leading international control researchers to assess the state of knowledge in the rapidly advancing field of robust control. In particular, several independent conceptual and mathematical approaches have developed over the years. These are H-infinity optimal control, parametric robust stability based on Kharitonov's theorem and related topics, l1 optimal control, mu-analysis, and quantitative feedback theory. This workshop will being together experts from each of these areas, for the first time. This will produce a cross fertilization of ideas and lead to more effective approaches toward developing solutions to the robust control problem. Some plenary talks and a concluding panel discussion are planned with this in mind. The papers presented at the workshop will be published in book form. The results of the workshop will have a very significant international impact on research, education, and engineering applications of robust control for many years to come.
