. Design for a brain. Brain -- Physiology; Central nervous system -- Mathematical models; Neurophysiology. U m Time Figure 8/10/1 : Three units interacting. At J, units 1 and 2 were con- strained to move together. New step-function values were found which produced stability. These values give stability in conjunction with the constraint, for when it is removed, at R, the system becomes unstable. the step-functions will also finish with values that are compen- satingly unusual. To the casual observer this adjustment of the step-function values to the parameter-values may be surprising ; we, however, can see that it is inevitable. The fact is demonstrable on the homeostat. After the machine was completed, some ' unusual ' complications were imposed on it (' unusual ' in the sense that they were not thought of till the machine had been built), and the machine was then tested to see how it would succeed in finding a stable field when affected by the peculiar complications. One such test was 101 H.
