  2. Overshoot (signal) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overshoot_(signal)

    The magnitude of overshoot depends on time through a phenomenon called "damping." See illustration under step response. Overshoot often is associated with settling time, how long it takes for the output to reach steady state; see step response. Also see the definition of overshoot in a control theory context.

  3. Control (management) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_(management)

    Control is a function of management that helps to check errors and take corrective actions. This is done to minimize deviation from standards and ensure that the stated goals of the organization are achieved in a desired manner.

  4. Basic fighter maneuvers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_fighter_maneuvers

    A "control-zone overshoot" occurs when the attacker crosses the defender's flight path from behind the front edge of the control zone. After a control-zone overshoot, the defender will continue turning in the same direction to retain the acquired angular advantage, trying to prevent the attacker from getting a good aim. [44] An '"in-close ...

  5. Step response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Step_response

    The step response of a system in a given initial state consists of the time evolution of its outputs when its control inputs are Heaviside step functions. In electronic engineering and control theory , step response is the time behaviour of the outputs of a general system when its inputs change from zero to one in a very short time.

  6. Proportional–integral–derivative controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportional–integral...

    Pressure control provided only a proportional control that, if the control gain was too high, would become unstable and go into overshoot with considerable instability of depth-holding. The pendulum added what is now known as derivative control, which damped the oscillations by detecting the torpedo dive/climb angle and thereby the rate-of ...

  7. Control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_theory

    The definition of a closed loop control system according to the British Standards Institution is "a control system possessing monitoring feedback, the deviation signal formed as a result of this feedback being used to control the action of a final control element in such a way as to tend to reduce the deviation to zero."

  8. Strategic control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategic_Control

    Although control was one of the six 'functions of management' [9] listed by Henri Fayol in 1917, [10] [11] the idea of strategic control as a distinct activity does not appear in the management literature until the late 1970s (e.g. "Strategic Control: a new task for top management" by J H Horovitz, [12] which was published in 1979, is a candidate for first paper to explicitly discuss the topic ...

  9. Management control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Management_control_system

    Management control as an interdisciplinary subject. A management control system (MCS) is a system which gathers and uses information to evaluate the performance of different organizational resources like human, physical, financial and also the organization as a whole in light of the organizational strategies pursued.
