Model predictive control is an indispensable part of industrial control engineering and is increasingly the \'method of choice\' for advanced control applications. Jan Maciejowski\'s book provides a systematic and comprehensive course on predictive control suitable for senior undergraduate and graduate students and professional engineers. The first book to cover constrained predictive control, the text reflects the true use of the topic in industry. Features: Contains mini-tutorials on specialist topics that make the text suitable for self-study Includes a separate chapter containing industrial case-studies that illustrate the methods in practice Provides worked examples and problems in each chapter Promotes the use of Matlab throughout and includes an appendix on the Model Predictive Control Toolbox for Matlab
