Linear stochastic systems are successfully used to provide mathematical
models for real processes in fields such as aerospace engineering,
communications, manuafacturing, finance and economy. This monograph
presents a useful methodology for the control of such stochastic
systems, with both multiplicative white noise and Markovian jumping. An
important feature is the inclusion of the necessary pre-requisites from
probability theory, stochastic processes, stochastic integrals and
stochastic differential equations. The systematic style of presentation
leads the reader in a natural way to the original results. This unique
monograph is geared to researchers and graduate students in advanced
control engineering, mathematical systems theory and finance, numerical
analysis. It is also accessible to undergraduate students with a
fundamental knowledge of the theory of stochastic systems.
