Summary: | This thesis discusses the modification of an existing Optimal Systems Control FORTRAN program (OPTSYS) originally obtained from Professor Arthur E. Bryson of Stanford University. The modified FORTRAN IV program (OPTSYSX) is now designed to run completely interactively under VM/CMS on the IBM 3033 and is considered completely compatible with similar operating systems. Program capabilities include: complete eigensystem analysis; the ability to perform computations on very large multi-variable systems; controller, filter, regulator and compensator synthesis; transfer function analysis; steady-state gain determinations; and modal analysis. The program permits users to rapidly carry out simulation, analysis, and design of all classes of optimal systems control problems in a totally interactive mode. Examples of various types of problems are worked out during individual terminal sessions. An OPTSYSX program listing is provided in the appendix
