Abstract :
A preliminary report is presented on modeling studies of the pyloric circuit of the crustacean stomatogastric ganglion. The goal of this research is to understand how this small network is able to perform the dynamic adjustments needed to maintain a stable rhythmic pattern over a wide range of frequencies and conditions. A discussion is presented of models of individual cell behaviors and the procedure by which they may be reduced to a manageable form. Some indications of how these intrinsic characteristics may interact to produce the full network behavior are presented
