====Two-process model of sleep====
The two-process model of sleep is a conceptual model that aims to relate the behavioral state regulation to two main procedures. Process-S describes the increasing homeostatic pressure, the more time spent awake (Adenosine-alertness hypothesis link)  . Process C describes the circadian framework in which sleep can occur.   
The two-process model of sleep is a conceptual model that aims to relate the behavioral state regulation to two main procedures. Process-S describes the increasing homeostatic pressure, the more time spent awake (Adenosine-alertness hypothesis link) and deacreses during time spent asleep . Process C describes the ~24h circadian framework in which sleep can occur.   
 
In order to visualise the components of the model, the graph of the study "A Two-Process Model for Circadian and Sleep-dependent Modulation of Pain Sensitivity" is used
