editor-in-chief, Madan G. Singh
Containing 71 articles, supplementary volume 2, provides an up-to-date review of recent developments in the field of systems and control. New developments covered include: 'fuzzy logic control', 'neural nets in control systems' and 'robust stability and robust stable control'. Supplementary volume 2 also provides coverage of the theory and application of systems in specific areas: modelling and simulation, traffic control and biological systems and measurement and software engineering. This update will continue to provide the practising scientist and engineer with an invaluable reference source on topics in the field of systems and control.

Under the direction of a distinguished Editorial Board, Professor Madan Singh has commissioned over 90 articles which extend, up-date and revise original material from the highly acclaimed "Systems & Control Encyclopedia". Particular attention has been paid to newly emerging areas of research and the increasing role of computers has been especially emphasized. Supplementary Volume 1 is the first in a series of biennial Supplements ensuring that the "Systems & Control Encyclopedia" remains the most comprehensive and up-to-date compendium of systems ideas, methods and applications available.

Containing 1621 specially commissioned articles, this unique and comprehensive new reference work provides information on what systems thinking comprises and how it is being used to understand and to attack a wide spectrum of diverse problems ranging from, for example, the control of servo-mechanisms to applications of space technology, or from understanding biological/environmental systems to controlling national economies. The volumes cover systems and control in the widest possible sense, treating the theoretical concepts as well as their applications. The latter are technological (to process industries like chemicals, paper and cement as well as to engineering systems like power generation, distribution, etc.), semi-technological (i.e. where human beings interact in the system, e.g. road traffic networks, environmental systems, robotics, energy systems) or non-technological (socio-economic systems, management systems, etc.). In each case, the role of computers as system components is particularly emphasized.
