This paper is concerned with the characteristic mode of biological control, termed compound control, which realizes the adapability to a wide variety of environments and to administer appropriate regulations. We first propose two basic main features of compound control. One is the computational media whose spatial and temporal combinations constitute complex biological regulations in response to diverse...
This paper reviews the interplay between biology and control theory as a typical example of transdisciplinary knowledge integration. Control is a fundamental function of the living organism that works in all aspects of the life. Various control mechanisms are ubiquitously built-in at all levels of body structures of living organisms and work all the time to support the life. They are diversely different...
Brain hypothermia treatment (BHT) requires proper mechanical ventilation and therapeutic cooling. The cooling strategy for BHT has been mainly discussed in the literature while little information is available on the respiratory management. We first developed a mathematical model that integrates the respiratory and biothermal dynamics to discuss the simultaneous managements of mechanical ventilation...
