A method is provided for automated tuning and calibration of feedback control of systems and processes. A series of actuator pulses are automatically performed and, based on the gradient of the sensor response, information is determined on the dynamics of the system to be controlled in what is described as the system identification procedure. An automatic sensor calibration procedure is performed to determine the controller's window of operation. Based on the information collected during the system identification procedure, controller parameters are automatically calculated for a specified time for the sensor to reach a setpoint. A system that is managed and/or controlled by a controller and/or control algorithm is also provided. The disclosed method provides a scheme for parameterization of control algorithms.
