Dual control theory Dual control theory is a branch of control theory that deals with the control of systems whose characteristics are initially unknown. It is called dual because in controlling such a system the controller's objectives are twofold: (1) To control the system as well as possible based on current system knowledge, and (2) To experiment with the system so as to learn about its behavior and control it better in the future.
Dual Contracts (New York City Subway) The Dual Contracts of 1913, also known as the Dual Subway System, were contracts for the construction and/or rehabilitation and operation of rapid transit lines in the City of New York.
