| Suppose we are at the point indicated on the left picture. | |||
| The basic idea of control is to change an available system parameter (for the tent map, this would be the s-value) so the modified tent map sends the point to the fixed point of the original tent map. | |||
| How do we determine the amount of the modification? | |||
| |||
| Click either picture to see the tent map adjustment. | |||
| The picture on the right shows how to do this graphically. | |||
| * Draw a horizontal line from the target point (the nonzero fixed point), and a vertical line from the starting point. | |||
| * If the tent map graph passed through the intersection of these lines, graphical iteration would take us from the starting point to the target point. |
