PCT Lit

Isn't it time we got the literature of Perceptual Control Theory available
in searchable form? What would be the best format? PDF?

If someone else can organize such a project, I'll be glad to help with some
of the grunt work -- scanning and OCRing and converting to format.

I sent this yesterday, but it is not coming through, so I updated the send date and am sending again. Dag

Do you mean everything remotely connected to PCT or merely the core literature.
You don't say where you have looked, what you have read or anything of the sort. A list with the former is available, now a few years old, from Greg Williams. I have it and will post it as I update websites.

Why don't you check out the reference sections of the books listed at my site, www.livingcontrolsystems.com (look into "Sample Content" of each work) and http://www.perceptualcontroltheory.org/ specifically Further Resources/further reading.

If, following your review, you want to suggest a rearrangement of the latter, I will be interested. I expect to recast the www.perceptualcontroltheory.org website in the next few months.

Best, Dag
