INTRAVENINIO GLIUKOZĖS TOLERANCIJOS TESTO METABOLINĖS P SISTEMOS ĮGYVENDINIMAS APIBENDRINTUOJU KOMBINACINIU BŪDU.

Metabolic P (MP) systems are a part of the infobiotics research field. The intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) MP system models glucose-insulin interactions. MP system implementation in software is well researched, although there is a lack of techniques for hardware implementation, specifically with field programmable gate arrays. In this article the existing techniques are examined first, including combinative, single digital signal processor element, and pipelined. Then the specifics of six different IVGTT MP systems are analyzed. Having in mind these specifics, a new unified combinative IVGTT MP system implementation in field programmable gate arrays is proposed. Carried out experimental investigation results confirm, that the proposed unified system in comparison with single IVGTT MP systems, uses 36% less digital signal processor and 49% less look-up table resources of the field programmable gate arrays.
