This book is a tribute to 40 years of contributions by Professor Mo Jamshidi who is a well known and respected scholar, researcher, and educator. Mo Jamshidi has spent his professional career formalizing and extending the field of large-scale complex systems (LSS) engineering resulting in educating numerous graduates specifically, ethnic minorities. He has made significant contributions in modeling, optimization, CAD,  control and applications of large-scale systems leading to his current global role in formalizing  system of systems engineering (SoSE), as a new field. His books on complex LSS and SoSE have filled a vacuum in cyber-physical systems literature for the 21st Century. His contributions to ethnic minority engineering education commenced with his work at the University of New Mexico (UNM, Tier-I Hispanic Serving Institution) in 1980 through a NASA JPL grant. Followed by several more major federal grants, he formalized a model for educating minorities, called VI-P Pyramid where K-12 students(bottom of pyramid) to doctoral (top of pyramid) students form a seamless group working on one project. Upper level students mentor lower ones on a sequential basis. Since 1980, he has graduated over 114 minority students consisting of 62 Hispanics, 34 African Americans., 15 Native Americans, and 3 Pacific Islanders.   This book contains contributed chapters from colleagues, and former and current students of Professor Jamshidi. Areas of focus are: control systems, energy and system of systems, robotics and soft computing. Control engineering. Computational intelligence. Control and Systems Theory. https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T19010 Computational Intelligence. https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T11014 El-Osery, Aly. editor. edt http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt Prevost, Jeff. editor. edt http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt SpringerLink (Online service) Springer Nature eBook Printed edition: 9783319146379 Printed edition: 9783319146355 Printed edition: 9783319363837 Studies in Systems, Decision and Control, 2198-4182 ; 27 https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-14636-2 ZDB-2-ENG ZDB-2-SXE Engineering (SpringerNature-11647) Engineering (R0) (SpringerNature-43712)
