Abstract
In this book we choose to work from the process back to the controller on a system such as is indicated abstractly in Fig. 3.1 and more specifically in Fig. 3.2. The immediate connections to the process are the sensors which measure the state of the process and the actuators which influence the control elements to adjust the process.
