Linear Deterministic Realization Theory
Dynamical systems can be described in two different ways. The first is the external,input/output or black-box description and the second is the internal or state-space description. The former is solely in terms of external variables, the causes or inputs

Curriculum Vitae of R.E. KaIman
Rudolf EmU Kaiman was born in Budapest, Hungary, on May 19,1930. He received the bachelor's degree (S.B.) and the master's degree (S.M.) in electrical engineering, from the Massachussetts Institute ofTechnology in 1953 and 1954 respectively. He received the doctorate degree (D. Sei.) from Columbia University in 1957. His major positions include that of Research Mathematician at R.I.A.S. (Research Institute for Advanced Study) in Baltimore, between 1958-1964, Professor at Stanford U niversity between 1964-1971, and since 1971 Graduate Research Professor, at the Center for Mathematical System Theory, University of Florida, Gainesville. Moreover, since 1973 he has also held the chair for Mathematical System Theory at the ETH (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology) Zürich. He is the recepient of numerous awards, including the IEEE Medal of Honor (1974), the IEEE Centenial Medal (1984), the Kyoto Prize in High Technology from the Inamori foundation, Japan (1985), the Steele Prize of the American Mathematical Society (1987). He is a foreign member of the Hungarian and French Academies of Science, and has received a number of honorary doctorates. He is married to Constanti
