The Fortran routines for model and controller reduction can deal with both stable and unstable continuous- and discrete-time linear multivariable systems using additive or relative error model reduction methods. The main features and options are:
- several model reduction approaches based on additive or relative error model reduction methods:
- Balance & Truncate (B&T)
- Singular perturbation approximation (SPA)
- Hankel norm approximation (HNA)
- Balanced stochastic truncation (BST), in conjunction with B&T and SPA
- Frequency-weighted reduction in conjunction with B&T, SPA, and HNA
- several controller reduction approaches:
- Frequency-weighted reduction with special stability/performance enforcing weights
- Coprime factorization based reduction of state feedback and observer based controllers, in conjunction with B&T and SPA
- enhanced accuracy algorithms using square-root and balancing-free approaches to model reduction
- reduction of unstable systems by combining the methods for stable systems with stable coprime factorization or additive spectral decomposition techniques
- availability of both, fully documented drivers and computational routines
- the use of structure exploiting algorithms and dedicated linear algebra tools

The documentation of all routines is also accessible from the SLICOT Library main index (in case of the drivers, or user-callable routines), or from the SLICOT Supporting Routines index (in case of the auxiliary routines, marked with * in the table above). The SLICOT Supporting Routines index is also accessible from the main Library index.
