The Minimal Model of Glucose Regulation: A Biographye science of cybernet-ics was introduced by Norbert Weiner at MIT (Weiner,1965). Weiner recognized the importance of the rapidly developing fields of control theory and systems analysis to problems in biology and medicine. During the ensuing decade, much was written about the potential benefits of a

Cornerstones to Shape Modeling for the 21st Century: Introducing the AKA-Glucose Project ‘new’ period or ‘new’ phase of endeavor. Accordingly, we begin this paper by reviewing what computer-based mathematical modeling in biology (CMMB) has brought us thus far, as we begin the 21. century (or could we say, ‘the third millennium’,). We will decompose the stages of CMMB evolution in the l

This approach applies whether the system being modeled is physical (e.g., an automobile) or biological.

Computers confer the ability to create scenarios that facilitate hypothesis testing, and they can be used to explore change over time when the balance of a system is altered. Most hypotheses lead to quantitative predictions that can be stated as one or more equations, and computers allow the

In the last decade, nutrition research has made great strides in identifying specific nutrients which have beneficial health effects and the mechanisms by which those health benefits are achieved. However, the ability of a specific nutrient to impart
