Abstract
A system consists of interrelated components or parts, called subsystems, organized to accomplish certain goals or objectives. For instance, a single-input-single-output (SISO) system carries out its objectives by transforming the incoming signal or input into a suitable output signal or response. The transformation process usually implies manipulation of the incoming information by performing mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, differentiation and integration.
