provides a unified and coherent review of the various approaches devised for the control of integral processes. Topics include PID controller assessments, two-degree-of-freedom control scheme design, Smith predictor control scheme modifications, and more.

This book reviews PID controller theory, design and realization, covering new approaches to controller tuning; configurations for more efficient control and such non-standard approaches as fractional-order, event-based, nonlinear and predictive control.
