“In this book, the authors demonstrate that the use of reduced-order matrices for designing controllers for subsystems in feedback control systems offers a compelling approach to manage complexity, reduce computational demands, enhance accuracy, and ensure robustness, reliability, and security in cyber-physical systems. This methodology empowers engineers and researchers to tackle the challenges of modern, interconnected systems effectively, contributing to safer and more efficient technological advancements.” (Kaïs Ammari, zbMATH 1522.93007, 2023)
