He proposed that the pressure to sleep was the maximum when the difference between the two was highest. In 1993, a different model called the opponent process model [98] was proposed. This model explained that these two processes opposed each other to produce sleep, as against Borbely's model.

Alexander A. Borbély (born 1939 in Budapest) is a Hungarian-Swiss pharmacologist known for his sleep research.. Borbély proposed the two-process model of sleep regulation in 1982 which postulates there are two complementary processes (S and C, which stands for Sleep and Circadian, respectively) which together account for one's sleep schedule. [1]
This model proposes a homeostatic process (Process S) and a circadian process (Process C) that interact to define the time and intensity of sleep. [71] Process S represents the drive for sleep, increasing during wakefulness and decreasing during sleep until a defined threshold level, while Process C is the oscillator responsible for these levels.
Sleep deprivation – Functional connectivity between nodes of the DMN in their resting-state is usually strong, but sleep deprivation results in a decrease in connectivity within the DMN. [72] Recent studies suggest a decrease in connectivity between the DMN and the task-positive network as a result of sleep loss. [73] Sleeping and resting ...
