Abstract
The objectives of this paper are to give a self-contained presentation of the subject of "controllability" and "observability" (concepts due to Kalman) developed in a simple yet general and rigorous way; to introduce these concepts in terms of the output as well as in terms of the state; and to point out and illustrate some of the subtleties which exist in the time-varying case.
