Micro Nanosystems And Systems On Chips

Download or read book Micro, Nanosystems and Systems on Chips written by Alina Voda and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-05-10 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micro- and nanosystems represent an area of major scientific and technological opportunity and challenge, with actual and potential applications in almost all fields of human activity. The aim of this book is to present the central concepts of dynamic control systems (modeling, estimation, observation, identification, feedback control) and to show how they can be adapted and applied to the development of novel very small-scale systems and their associated human interfaces. The application fields presented here come from micro- and nano-robotics, biochips, near-field microscopy (AFM and STM) and nano-systems networks. Alina Voda has assembled contributions from leading experts at top research universities to produce the first overview of the major role that control systems science will play in the development of micro and nano-science and technologies.
