This is complete lections from University of California at Berkeley on the course named "Automatic control systems". Automatic control is the application of concepts derived from the research area of modern control theory. Automatic control is also a technology for application of control strategies. The implementing requires prior of analyzing and modeling of the subject to be controlled. Automatic control covers all kinds of technical implementationms for systems to save energy and to prevent from self destroying.
Automatic control is the traditional technical base for mechanization and automation. Automatic control employs methods from control theory and from physics and is based on mathematics and engineering. The systems studied within automatic control design are mostly complex systems, for the ease of modeling partially reduced for the operational conditions to somewhat simplified or partial linear systems.
