Overview
- The first book of its kind to provide a broad, comprehensive source of information about embedded and networked control
- Many scattered articles, websites, and specification sheets are unified into a single volume – information that might otherwise be difficult to find
- Shows the reader where to start and how to navigate the extensive literature on the subject of embedded and networked control
- Self-contained, sharply-focused articles; clear structure and presentation of concepts in intuitive order
- Information about commercially available tools and hardware
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

About this book
Reviews
"Each of this handbook's 35 chapters is an independent article written by one or more authors. The editors gathered these articles and arranged them in six topical groups. Although the self-contained articles vary somewhat in format, most begin with an overview of their contents, conclude with a summary, and provide an extensive reference list. There is greater variety in content, ranging from theoretical to practical. Several articles feature illustrative case studies. The six article groupings are "Fundamentals," "Hardware," "Software," "Theory," "Networking," and "Applications." As these headings imply, the articles cover a broad spectrum of state-of-the-art embedded control systems, related networking, and tools-of-the-trade topics. Though primarily a resource book intended for control system researchers and practitioners, it can serve as a course resource or supplemental reading for an upper-level undergraduate- or master's-level control systems course. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals." —Choice
"The Handbook provides engineers, computer scientists, mathematicians, and students a broad, comprehensive source of information and technology to address many questions and aspects of embedded and networked control. A carefully organized collection of important results, tools, software, and technology, this work unifies into a single reference many scattered articles, websites, and specification sheets—information that might otherwise be difficult to find." —Zentralblatt MATH
