Segmental differential approximation and biological systems

An analysis of a metabolic process

Richard Ernest Bellman, R. Roth

ResearchPublished 1966

Mathematical formulation of a complex system suggested by a metabolic process. The formulation allows for certain subprocesses to operate over finite time spans within the time intervals. Central to the mathematical formulation are the observed experimental data. It is assumed that some information is available for each operating subprocess. A computational method of solution is suggested. 26 pp. Bibliog.
