Abstract

The aim of this chapter is the study of structural properties of linear systems. Systems with time-varying coefficients are considered, both in the continuousand discrete-time cases. These two cases are merged into a general framework. This study is based on module theory. Let us briefly explain what a module is, in connection with the theory of differential and difference equations.
