Recently, considerable attention has been given to problems related to          the robust control of systems whose mathematical description includes           uncertain parameters.  This type of uncertainty arises in a diversity           of application areas such as flight control, process control, vehicle           control, and network design.  Several fundamental issues related to             this topic will be explored.  The contention here is that many problems         of this type (such as stabilization, tracking, compensation against             parasitics, etc.) can be reduced to more basic questions about                  polynomials.  To this end, this research first establishes a solid              connection between robust control problems and a special class of               polynomial problems.  The resulting polynomials turn out to have a              special structure which will be heavily expoited in the proposed                research.  The unifying polymial framework readily accommodates changes         in order and uncertainties which range over a continuum rather than a           finite set.  The intention is to develop specific compensator design            procedures.  Much of the impetus for the development of numerical               methods is derived from a recent breakthrough in the theory of interval         polynomials by Kharitonov.
