AdASDiM: application of adaptive control technique to diabetic management

Describes the software implementation and related issues for the validation of a model reference adaptive system for simulation and optimization of insulin therapy in diabetics. The advisor, denoted AdASDiM, can operate with sparse (3-5 times a day) blood glucose measurements. Due to its adaptivity, it is able to handle the individual differences and changes in the carbohydrate metabolic systems of the patients. Also, the proposed scheme makes use of the knowledge of the time and quantity of future meals and insulin injections.<<ETX>>
