Abstract
The word system is used in this book as a synonym for mathematical model of a dynamical phenomenon. Since different problems may require different models of the same phenomenon, we need a versatile notion of system that can be equipped with relationships explaining how different systems can be related. The purpose of this chapter is to provide one such notion and to illustrate its use in di_erent contexts.
