Parent topics
- Control engineering [r]: The design of systems capable of accurately controlling a physical device [e]
- Cybernetics [r]: Add brief definition or description
Sub-topics
- Feedback [r]: The use of information from the monitoring of system performance either to modify or to maintain that performance. [e]
Co-topics
- Closed loop control [r]: A control system in which the controller has access to signals containing information about the current state of the plant (the object or system to be controlled) during the time that the controller is in operation. [e]
- Homeostasis (biology) [r]: The coordinated physiological reactions which maintain most of the steady states in an organism. [e]
- Open loop control [r]: A control system in which the controller has no access to signals containing information about the current state of the plant (the object or system to be controlled) during the time that the controller is in operation. [e]
