This volume offers a glimpse of the status of research in adaptive
and learning systems in 1985. In recent years these areas have
spawned a multiplicity of ideas so rapidly that the average
research worker or practicing engineer is overwhelmed by the flood
of information. The Yale Workshop on Applications of Adaptive
Systems Theory was organized in 1979 to provide a brief respite
from this deluge, wherein critical issues may be examined in a calm
and collegial environment. The fourth of the series having been
held in May 1985, it has now become well established as a biennial
forum for the lively exchange of ideas in the ever changing domain
of adaptive systems. The scope of this book is broad and ranges
from theoretical investigations to practical applications. It
includes twenty eight papers by leaders in the field, selected from
the Pro ceedings of the Fourth Yale Workshop and divided into five
sections. I have provided a brief introduction to each section so
that it can be read as a self-contained unit. The first section,
devoted to adaptive control theory, suggests the intensity of
activity in the field and reveals signs of convergence towards some
common themes by workers with rather different moti vation.
Preliminary results concerning the reduced order model problem are
dramatically changing the way we view the field and bringing it
closer to other areas such as robust linear control where major
advances have been recently reported.
