The example which gives the area its name is the limit of quantum mechanical Hamil tonians (Schrodinger operators) as Planck's constant h goes to zero, which is determined by the corresponding classical mechanical system.

This three-week summer program considered the symmetries preserving various natural geometric structures. The articles in the first part are expository but all contain significant new material. All articles were thoroughly refereed and the range of interrelated work ensures that this will be an extremely useful collection.

The articles in this volume focus on control theory of systems governed by nonlinear linear partial differential equations, identification and optimal design of such systems, and modelling of advanced materials.

Robust control originates with the need to cope with systems with modeling uncertainty. There have been several mathematical techniques developed for robust control system analysis. The articles in this volume cover all of the major research directions in the field.

During the past decade the interaction between control theory and linear algebra has been ever increasing, giving rise to new results in both areas. The cross-fertilization between control and linear algebra can be found in subfields such as Numerical Linear Algebra, Canonical Forms, Ring-theoretic Methods, Matrix Theory, and Robust Control.

Semiconductor and integrated-circuit modeling are an important part of the high-technology "chip" industry, whose high-performance, low-cost microprocessors and high-density memory designs form the basis for supercomputers, engineering workstations, laptop computers, and other modern information appliances.
