Feedback
Components of a feedback system
data on the actual level of some measurable attribute;
data on the reference level of that attribute;
a mechanism for comparing the two levels and generating informationabout the ‘gap’ between the two levels;
a mechanism by which the information can be used to alter the gap.
To an engineer, information is therefore feedback only if the informationfed back is actually used in closing the gap.
