Advanced undergraduates and graduate students of electrical, chemical, mechanical, and environmental engineering will appreciate this text for a course in systems identification. In addition to the theoretical basis for mathematical modeling, it covers a variety of identification algorithms and their applications. Numerical examples show how to apply modeling theories. 1986 edition. Reprint of the Academic Press, London and New York, 1986 edition.
