This monograph presents original methods of analysis and synthesis for a wide class of control systems with required accuracy. The direct interaction between those methods and classical frequency domain methods is demonstrated as well as its importance for the investigation of automatic control systems quality. This clearly and thoughtful written book is aimed at control engineers, practitioners such as system designers or designers of automatic control devices, as well as researchers in control theory. Ensuring Control Accuracy is also a useful textbook for graduate students, carefully simplifying the understanding of the field including instructive questions at the end of each chapter.

This monograph provides a comprehensive and thorough treatment of the problem of controlling a redundant robot manipulator. It presents the latest research from the field with a good balance between theory and practice. All theoretical developments are verified both via simulation and experimental work on an actual prototype redundant robot manipulator. This book is the first text aimed at graduate students and researchers working in the area of redundant manipulators giving a comprehensive coverage of control of redundant robot manipulators from the viewpoint of theory and experimentation.

Focusing on the controlling management method, this book considers the conditions that must be met within a given organization in order for controlling to achieve the desired level of product quality, allowing it to enhance the performance of the organization as a whole. The book describes the influence of each identified group of conditions on the Controlling Effectiveness Model and includes empirical research, conducted at various organizations operating in Poland, that verifies its theoretical assumptions. In terms of analyzing the empirical data, description and statistical inference methods were used, such as students’ t-test scores for independent samples, non-parametric r-Pearson correlation and linear regression analysis. Additionally, the book includes moderators and mediators executed using Process Macro for SPSS by Hayes, and multigroup path analysis executed using SPSS AMOS.

This book provides an update of the latest research in control of time delay systems and applications by world leading experts. It will appeal to engineers, researchers and students in Control.
