    Continuous control of ionization wave chaos by spatially derived feedback signals

    In the positive column of a neon glow discharge, two different types of ionization waves occur simultaneously. The low-dimensional chaos arising from the nonlinear interaction between the two waves is controlled by a continuous feedback technique. The control strategy is derived from the time-delayed autosynchronization method. Two spatially displaced points of observation are used to obtain the control information, using the propagation characteristics of the chaotic wave.Comment: Elsevier-Tex-File, 8 pages, 6 figures, submitted to PL

    On the Simulation of Multiagent-Based Regulators for Physiological Processes

    No full text
    The multiagent approach allows to e#ectively address and manage the complex regulation of physiological processes. In this paper we argue why multiagent regulating systems need to be simulated in order to assess the properties of interest. In particular, we consider a multiagent regulator of the glucose-insulin metabolism and we show how the e#ectiveness of its control activity and other salient properties of this system can be derived from simulation
