Assigned (compulsory) reading

Section 1.4 in Skogestad 2nd edition describing scaling of the models. Chapter 5 and 6 in Skogestad (the second edition). The lecture covers most of the results for SISO systems but extensions for MIMO systems are mostly left for self-study.

Recommended (not compulsory) further reading

Unfortunately, a systematic treatment of limitations of achievable performance comparable to that offered by Skogestad's book is hardly available in other textbooks. There is a dedicated monograph [3], and there are also two papers [1] and [2] that provide some overview.
