This paper reviews the static output feedback problem in the control of linear, time-invariant (LTI) systems. It includes analytical and computational methods and presents in a unified fashion, the knowledge gained in the decades of research into this most important problem.

This paper expands on a method proposed in [1] for stabilising oscilatory system with positive, delayed feedback. The dosed-loop sytem obtained is shown (using the Nyquist criterion) to be stable for a range of delays.

The purpose of this article is to show how the design procedure commonly referred to as integrator backstepping can be used to design globally stable trajectory tracking controllers for Rigid‐Link Flexible‐Joint (RLFJ) robot manipulators. Three different types of controllers are developed: (1) an exact model knowledge‐based controller, (2) an adaptive controller that compensates for parametric uncertainty, and (3) a robust controller that compensates for parametric uncertainty and unknown bounded disturbances. All three controllers are based on previously published work but are presented here in a unifying framework. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

In this paper, experimental evaluation of the load balancing algorithm in real environments is presented. we emphasize on the effects of delays in the exchange of information among nodes, and the constraints these effects impose on the design of a load balancing strategy. two testbeds in two different real environments have been built; The first implementation was over a local area network whereas the second one was over Planet-Lab. The results show the effect of the network delays and variances in the tasks processing time on choosing adequate gain values for the load balancing algorithm.
