Mark Needham describes overcompensating in feedback loops.
This reminded me of something from my control theory course at university many years ago. If you are not in a desired state, you should make changes that are a percentage of the difference between your current state and the desired state. You will gradually converge towards it, and not overcompensate for any sudden changes.
