The control systems discipline has undergone radical transformation over the past three decades. Affordable microprocessors now allow control algorithms to integrate into virtually any technology. Advanced computer-aided design tools have made it possible to analyze and design controllers for intricate multivariable systems. Societal demands for enhanced safety and environmental protection have created complex problems solvable primarily through feedback control. Emerging applications span diverse fields like cyber-physical systems, biological networks, production automation, and robotic walking systems. The University of Michigan's EECS Department Control Laboratory faculty lead these innovations, pushing boundaries through cutting-edge research while effectively translating these advancements into student coursework.
