A note on application of hills procedure for growth-curve analysis of Indian major carp, Labeo rohita (Ham.), during the gonodal development period at Shillong, Meghalaya

The present study deals with the length increment data of 15 adult Labeo rohita (Ham.) over a period of five months by the applicatin of finite difference method at an altitude of 1496 m above mean sea level at Shilllong, Meghalaya.

Matching an oscillator model to a phase response curve

The Phase Response Curve (PRC) has proven a useful tool for the reduction of complex oscillator models. It is also an information often experimentally available to the biologist. This paper introduces a numerical tool based on the sensitivity analysis of the PRC to adapt initial model parameters in order to match a particular PRC shape. We illustrate the approach on a simple biochemical model of circadian oscillator. © 2011 IEEE.

Controlling the phase of an oscillator: A phase response curve approach

The paper discusses elementary control strategies to control the phase of an oscillator. Both feedforward and feedback (P and PI) control laws are designed based on the phase response curve (PRC) calculated from the linearized model. The performance is evaluated on a popular model of circadian oscillations. ©2009 IEEE.
