       Design and Simulation Software for Controls, Filtering, Signal
       Processing
       Linear control system analysis and design : conventional and
       modern / John J. D'Azzo, Constantine H. Houpis (1988) 3rd
       edition. The earlier editions were 1960 and 1981.
       This book has an appendix about an Air Force FORTRAN TOTAL, or
       TOTAL-I.
       This is also covered in the 1981 2nd edition.
       These D'Azzo and Houpis editions are the only place I have seen
       TOTAL mentioned.
       From when I first learned of MATLAB, I felt that this TOTAL was
       one of the influences behind it.
       TOTAL comes from an MS Thesis
       Larimer, S. J. "An Interactive Computer-Aided Design Program for
       Digital and Continuous System Analysis and Synthesis (TOTAL),
       School of Engineering, Air Force institute of Technology,
       Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio, 1978

       So, drawing from:
       Linear Control Systems Analysis and Design
       Conventional and Modern
       Third Edition
       John D'Azzo and Constantine Houpis
       1988
       So, above I talked about the matrix program TOTAL, coming from a
       thesis by S. J. Larimer, at the Air Force Institute of
       Technology, Wright-Patterson AFB Ohio, 1978
       Now we also have other Air Force Institute of Technology theses
       listed:
       Colgate, A.  "INTERAC -An Interactive Software Package for
       Direct Digital Control Design 1977
       Gembrowski, C. J. "Continued Development of an Interactive
       Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Package for Discrete and Continuous
       Control System Analysis and Synthesis, 1982
       Hernandez, G. "An Interactive Computational Aerodynamics
       Analysis Program, 1980
       Kennedy, A. "The Design of Digital Controllers for the C-141
       Aircraft Using Entire Eigenstructure Assignment and the
       Development of an Inter-Active Computure Design Program, 1979
       Logan, G. T.  "Development of an Interactive Computer-Aided
       Design Program for Digital and Continuous Control System
       Analysis and Synthesis", 1982
       O'Brien, L. "A Consolidated Computer Program for Control System
       Design", 1976
       And I am sure that MatLAB arose from this work.
