Mathematics of Control, Signals, and Systems (MCSS) is an international journal devoted to mathematical control and system theory. Focuses on the mathematical theory of systems with inputs and/or outputs. Covers potential topics including controllability, observability, and stability theory of nonlinear systems. Publishes original and high-quality research papers with a substantial mathematical contribution. Does not publish papers that merely apply known mathematical techniques or only describe simulation studies.
