Biologically Inspired Intercellular Slot Synchronization

Biologically Inspired Intercellular Slot Synchronization

The present article develops a decentralized interbase station slot synchronization algorithm suitable for cellular mobile communication systems. The proposed cellular firefly synchronization (CelFSync) algorithm is derived from the theory of pulse-coupled oscillators, common to describe synchronization phenomena in biological systems, such as the spontaneous synchronization of fireflies. In or...

Biologically inspired mutual synchronization of manufacturing machines

A biologically inspired manufacturing control system for synchronous delivery of jobs at a batch machine is developed. This control system is based on a synchronization mechanism of enzymes replacing the role of product molecules with kanbans. This manufacturing control system works well, provided the variability in service times is not too high.

Biologically inspired speaker verification

Speaker verification is an active research problem that has been addressed using a variety of different classification techniques. However, in general, methods inspired by the human auditory system tend to show better verification performance than other methods. In this thesis three biologically inspired speaker verification algorithms are presented. The first is a vowel-dependent speaker verif...

Biologically Inspired Digital Fabrication

Objects and systems in nature are models for the practice of sustainable design and fabrication. From trees to bones, natural systems are characterized by the constant interplay of creation, environmental response, and analysis of current structural constituents, as part of a larger dynamic system. In contrast, traditional methods of digital design and fabrication are characterized by a linear ...
