Scalable computation of viability kernels and a viability-theoretic approach to guaranteeing safety for closed-loop medical devices

As closed-loop controllers become increasingly prevalent in medical technology, increasing emphasis is being placed on ensuring that such systems operate in a safe manner. In our approach to guaranteeing the safe operation of a physiologic closed-loop control system, we wish to provide a mathematica...
