Using Artificial Physics to Control Agents
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce a novel framework called “artificial physics”, which provides distributed control of large collections of agents. The agents react to artificial forces that are motivated by natural physical laws. This framework provides an effective mechanism for achieving self-assembly, fault-tolerance, and self-repair. Examples are shown for various regular geometric configurations of agents. A further example demonstrates that self-assembly via distributed control can also perform distributed computation.

An Analysis to Wealth Distribution Based on Sugarscape Model in an Artificial Society
In this paper an artificial society is being assumed as a multi agents system. A sugarscape model consisting of a cellular landscape of resources is used to form an interaction among the agents of the population. In the model, agents find the resources to survive. They are supposed to move and search and because of this movement, an evolutionary social behavior will develope. From model analys...
متن کاملDistributed Spatial Control, Global Monitoring and Steering of Mobile Agents
In this paper, we combine two frameworks in the context of an important application. The first framework, called “artificial physics,” is described in detail in a companion paper by Spears and Gordon [13]. The purpose of artificial physics is the distributed spatial control of large collections of mobile physical agents. The agents can be composed into geometric patterns (e.g., to act as a sens...
متن کاملGrowth of wurtzite ZnO nanorods using different capping agents: Characterization, morphology, and investigation the catalytic activity in some oxindoles and indolyl organics
ZnO nanorods have been prepared through chemical deposition of Zn(OAc)2.2H2O by employing different capping agents, (PEG, MW=2000 and PEG, MW=5000). The fabricated catalyst was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) images and XRD pattern. The results show the one dimensional growth of ZnO nano-rods. The results show that capping agents can control the shape and growth of nano-size...
متن کاملComparison between artificial neural network and radiobiological modeling for prediction of thyroid gland complications of after radiotherapy
Introduction: Hypothyroidism is one of the frequent side effects of radiotherapy of head and neck cancers, breast cancer, and Hodgkin's lymphoma. It is recommended to estimate the normal tissue complication probability of thyroid gland using radiobiological modeling during treatment planning. Moreover, the use of artificial neural network is also proposed as a new method for t...
