The Virtual Pheromone Communication Primitive
Abstract. We propose a generic communication primitive designed for sensor networks. Our primitive hides details of network communication while retaining sufficient programmer control over the communication behavior of an application; it is designed to ease the burden of writing application-specific communication protocols for efficient, long-lived, fault-tolerant, and scalable applications. Wh...
متن کاملPheromone communication in amphibians and reptiles.
This selective review considers herpetological papers that feature the use of chemical cues, particularly pheromones involved in reproductive interactions between potential mates. Primary examples include garter snake females that attract males, lacertid lizards and the effects of their femoral gland secretions, aquatic male newts that chemically attract females, and terrestrial salamander male...
متن کاملAn Evolutionary Simulation of the Origin of Pheromone Communication
Social insects exhibit complex and adaptive behavior. In particular, it is well known that ants solve difficult problems, for instance selecting the shortest pathway, by communicating with each other via pheromone. The fundamental question regarding pheromone communication is: How have the pheromone communication systems emerged? This paper introduces the ant foraging model for evolution of phe...
متن کاملCongregation Behaviour in a Robot Swarm Using Pheromone Communication
Characteristically, social insects are extremely reliant on their use of pheromones to maintain their social activities as a colony unit. This paper describes an on-going project to investigate the possibility of using pheromone communication in a robot swarm. The particular example of pheromone communication considered here was inspired by the queen bee pheromone. This pheromone is only emitte...
متن کاملSocial modulation of associative fear learning by pheromone communication.
Mice communicate through visual, vocal, and olfactory cues that influence innate, nonassociative behavior. We here report that exposure to a recently fear-conditioned familiar mouse impairs acquisition of conditioned fear and facilitates fear extinction, effects mimicked by both an olfactory chemosignal emitted by a recently fear-conditioned familiar mouse and by the putative stress-related anx...
