The philosophy of this course is excellently described in: The Role and Use of the Stochastic Linear-Quadratic-Gaussian Problem in Control System Design, Michael Athans, 1971, IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, AC-16, 6, pp. 529-552.
An adaptation of this paper for digital control: Digital optimal control of non-linear uncertain systems applied to rigid manipulators, pp. 240-275 of the PhD Thesis: Digital optimal control of rigid manipulators by L.G. van Willigenburg, 1991.
Exam and solutions of final two questions (the answers of the first two can be found on the sheets): ExJul02.pdf.
