OVERVIEW

The use of appropriate software tools cannot be any more distinguished from the theoretical aspects of Control a Systems Theory. For this reason, the course aims to review in such a  way the contents of the courses of Systems Theory, Automatic Control and Discrete Event Systems.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The course aims to teach the students the use of software tools to solve efficiently the problems faced in the previous theoretical courses in Control and Systems Theory

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

At the end of the course the student will be able to build up a simulation model of a system, check its behaviour and perform 'what if' analysys.
