National Chuanghua University of Education - Spring 2017

Syllabus

Course Program: Ph.D.

Instructor: Dr. Yao

Course Title: Special Topics in Computer-Controlled Systems

Credit Hours:  3  credits ＼  3  hours

Course Objective：

Practically all control systems that are implemented today are based on computer control. This course provides opportunities to study and develop new algorithms for analysis, design and implementation of computer-controlled systems with higher performance than traditional analog-controlled systems.
