SYS 301 - The Art and Science of Systems Modeling

Institution:

University of Virginia-Main Campus

Subject:

Systems and Information Engineering

Description:

This course will introduce the students to the systemic process of model building and to the richness of the plethora of classes of models, spanning linear vs. nonlinear; static vs. dynamic; deterministic vs. probabilistic; discrete vs. continuous; single-objective vs. multi-objective. In particular, the central role of state space and state variables in system modeling will be the focus of model building. All models developed in class will be introduced with example problems and the students' learning experience in model building will be codified through group homework assignments, exams and a term project.
