Popis: | A digital architecture for the emulation of dynamic bacterial quorumsensing is presented. The architecture is completely scalable, with all parameters stored in artificial bacteria. It shows that self-organizing principles can be emulated in an electronic circuit, to build a parallel system capable of processing information, similar to cell-based structure of biological creatures. A mathematical model of artificial bacteria and their behavior reflecting the self-organization of the system are presented. The bacteria implemented on an 8-bit microcontroller; and a framework with CPLDs to build the hardware platform where the bacterial population increases are shown. Finally, simulation results show the ability of the system to keep working after physical damage, just as its biological counterpart. |
