This is the first practical treatment of the design and application
of feedback control of computing systems. MATLAB files for the
solution of problems and case studies accompany the text
throughout. The book discusses information technology examples,
such as maximizing the efficiency of Lotus Notes.
This book results from the authors’ research into the use of
control theory to model and control computing systems. This has
important implications to the way engineers and researchers
approach different resource management problems. This guide is well
suited for professionals and researchers in information technology
and computer science.
