  22. DSP can be considered as a small part of control. The main differences, as far
  23. as I can consider, are (1) DSP mainly deals with signals rathan than systems
  24. (i.e. control focuses on transfer functions, DSP focuses on FFTs). (2) The 
  25. signals which DSP will handle are much faster than the signals in process
  26. control.
