IEEE Control Systems Award
The IEEE Control Systems Award is a technical field award given to an individual by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) "for outstanding contributions to control systems engineering, science or technology". It is an IEEE-level award, created in 1980 by the board of directors of the IEEE, but sponsored by the IEEE Control Systems Society. Originally the name was IEEE Control Systems Science and Engineering Award, but after 1991 the IEEE changed it to ''IEEE Control Systems Award''. Recipients of this award receive a bronze medal, a certificate, and an honorarium. Recipients The following people received the ''IEEE Control Systems Science and Engineering Award'': * 1982: Howard H. Rosenbrock * 1983: ''No award'' * 1984: Arthur E. Bryson, Jr. * 1985: George Zames * 1986: Charles A. Desoer * 1987: Walter Murray Wonham * 1988: Dante C. Youla * 1989: Yu-Chi Ho * 1990: Karl Johan Åström * 1991: Roger W.

Control System
A control system manages, commands, directs, or regulates the behavior of other devices or systems using control loops. It can range from a single home heating controller using a thermostat controlling a domestic boiler to large industrial control systems which are used for controlling processes or machines. The control systems are designed via control engineering process. For continuously modulated control, a feedback controller is used to automatically control a process or operation. The control system compares the value or status of the process variable (PV) being controlled with the desired value or setpoint (SP), and applies the difference as a control signal to bring the process variable output of the plant to the same value as the setpoint. For sequential and combinational logic, software logic, such as in a programmable logic controller, is used. Open-loop and closed-loop control There are two common classes of control action: open loop and closed loop. In an ...
