This volume contain thirty-one papers based on talks delivered at the 4th Workshop of the Nonlinear Control Network (http: //www.shef/?NCN4), held at The University of She?eld, 25 28 June, 2001. We would like to emphasize one peculiarity of our ?eld: nonlinear control is an example of a theory situated at a crossroad between mathematics and engineering science. Due to this position, nonlinear control has its roots in both ?elds and, as we deeply believe, can bring new ideas and new results for both domains. The book re?ects very well this double character of nonlinear control theory: the...

This book develops a coherent and quite general theoretical approach to algorithm design for iterative learning control based on the use of operator representations and quadratic optimization concepts including the related ideas of inverse model control and gradient-based design.
Using detailed examples taken from linear, discrete and continuous-time systems, the author gives the reader access to theories based on either signal or parameter optimization. Although the two approaches are shown to be related in a formal mathematical sense, the text presents them separately as their...
