This ODE file reproduces figure 2 from

sleep-wake cycle. J Math Biol 60:615-44

Notice that as it is written now the simulation contains noise.  If
you want to reproduce Figure 2 exactly, turn off noise by making
gnoise=0 and gnoiserem=0

To start execute a command like (unix/linux)
xpp flipflop.ode
or start xpp and load the flipflop.ode file (other OS's)
and then select Initialconds -> (G)o and then you should see a graph like



To reproduce figure 3, you will need noise and you'll need to modify
the code below to start at different circadian phases.  You'll also
probably need MATLAB or some other computing language to process the
output of the XPP runs.

The default mode is to plot the wake-active, sleep-active,
NREM-active, and REM-active populations as in figure 2 panel b.  You
can also uncomment the second-to-last line to see the 2-process
behavior.
