Title: Control and coordination in hierarchical systems
Description: "The purpose of this book is to present the theory of control and coordination in hierarchical systems - that is, in systems where the decision-making responsibility has been divided. Since it aims to present theory that will be useful for applications, it not only encompasses the basic, general, and consequently somewhat abstract principles of coordination, but also considers such practical features as differences between models and the reality they describe, constraints, possible use of feedback information, and time horizons."--Preface.
