The material here is mostly based on the chapters 5 (SISO systems) and 6 (MIMO systems) of Skogestad and Postlethwaite (2005).

While the treatment of the book is more than sufficient for our course, we list here some other resources for further reading. The popular paper Stein (2003) provides a nice explanation of the waterbed effect(s).

Interested readers may want to consult the specialized monograph Seron, Braslavsky, and Goodwin (1997), but it is certainly not necessary for our course.

More recent results are surveyed in Chen, Fang, and Ishii (2019).
