OVERSHOOTING 1)2)
← Back
A process which tends to send the system outside of its dynamic stability limits.
Overshooting is generally a result of time lags in the system's responses. It may destroy the system if not controlled in due time. Moreover this control is difficult and, in some cases downright counter-intuitive.
This process has been very well described in J. FORRESTER's Systems dynamics.
The subject is of utmost importance for governance in pursuit of a sustainable management of human systems.
