Engineering control into medicine. [PDF]

J Crit Care, 2015
The human body is a tightly controlled engineering miracle. However, medical training generally does not cover "control" (in the engineering sense) in physiology, pathophysiology, and therapeutics. A better understanding of how evolved controls maintain normal homeostasis is critical for understanding the failure mode of controlled systems, that is ...

Bacteria as Control Engineers [PDF]

Molecular Cell, 2011
Bacteria encounter fluctuations in both their external and internal environments, and to manage these conditions, they employ various control mechanisms. In this issue of Molecular Cell, Hart et al. (2011) investigate how E. coli robustly controls nitrogen assimilation.

An Introduction to Control Engineering [PDF]

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 1973
The viewpoint, terminology and technique of the control engineer are introduced in the context of biological control systems. The centrality of the feedback principle in the operation of control systems is emphasized, and the advantages of feedback control described. It is indicated that the control engineer frequently employs mathematical analysis and

Responsibly Engineering Control

American Philosophical Quarterly
Abstract A number of concerns have been recently raised regarding the possibility of human agents to effectively maintain control over intelligent and (partially) autonomous artificial systems. These issues have been deemed to raise “responsibility gaps.” To address these gaps, several scholars and other public and private stakeholders ...

Engineering Controllable Protein Degradation [PDF]

Molecular Cell, 2006
Complex biological networks are regulated via alterations in protein expression, degradation, and function. Synthetic control of these processes allows dissection of natural systems and the design of new networks. In E. coli, the adaptor SspB tethers ssrA-tagged substrates to the ClpXP protease, causing a modest increase in their rate of degradation ...
