Abstract
In this paper, it is discussed how physiological systems can be regulated by using the control theory as well as methodologies of system analysis, modeling, and identification. In physiology, the natural tendency to homeostasis, despite changes in the environments, implies a feedback-control scheme. The study of the natural regulation in physiological systems could help in its replacing when pathological situations are present. The basic concepts of homeostasis, modeling and control are here recalled, and some case studies are described.
