Reihe: Lecture Notes in Control and Information Sciences

This is a collection of articles by friends, co-authors, colleagues, and students of Keith Glover, Professor of Engineering at the University of Cambridge, on the occasion of his 60th birthday. Professor Glover's work spans a variety of topics, including system identification, model reduction and approximation, robust controller synthesis, and control of aircraft and engines. The collection is a tribute to Professor Glover's seminal work in these areas.
