This volume reviews recent developments and trends in modeling and control within biomedical systems. It focuses on methodological issues pertinent to both modeling and control, and examines various physiological systems from a control perspective, covering applications in research, diagnosis, and therapy. The collection includes 98 papers that explore these critical intersections.

This collection appears to be a technical compilation for specialists in biomedical engineering and control systems. The focus on methodological issues and physiological systems suggests a dense, academic treatment of the subject matter. It is likely intended for researchers and practitioners seeking an in-depth overview of the state of the art in the field as of 1988-1989.
