The solution of automatic control systems, especially self-adjusting systems with considering the effects of perturbations, presents one of the major problems of technical cybernetics. This monograph deals with the synthesis and analysis of discrete extremal systems. It is one of the first publications of its kind in the Soviet literature since those hitherto issued have all dealt with continuous systems and excitations involved. Chapter 1 summarizes introductory notes on extremal systems and on the influence of perturbations upon discrete extremal systems. Chapter 2 is devoted to general questions of the synthesis of optimal self-adjusting systems. Chapter 3 deals with a simpler extremal system with extrapolation. In Chapter 4 step systems of automatic searching are discussed. Chapter 5 tackles the problem of the extremum control of several objects and Chapter 6 introduces an extremal system of controlling the motion of an object by a given course. The comments to this chapter are given on the basis of a concrete application related to the tasks of controlling an aircraft according to maps. The monograph as a whole deals with actual problems of technical cybernetics and thus can be recommended to all engaged in this field.
