Current Quarter (Winter 2022)

AA/EE/ME 598: Mathematical Foundations of Systems Theory: This course is the ``old’’ AA/EE/ME 510 dealing with developing vector space machinery for systems analysis and optimization. In the Winter quarter of 2022, we will first re-examine finite dimensional vector spaces (linear algebra) and then move towards viewing system design issues thru the lens of the machinery that we develop.
