Abstract
In this paper some of the relations between the observability and identification in linear systems theory and the classical problems of interpolation and approximation will be examined. These problems are all classical, but it appears that a certain amount of insight can be gained by the cross fertilization of areas. There are many papers in this volume that are related to particular instances of the problems here proposed. When possible the reader will be referred to these papers for details.
