The Artificial Cytoskeleton for Lifetime Adaptation of Morphology
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Artificial Cytoskeleton (AC) is introduced as a new model for generating adaptive growth of an artificial cell’s morphology throughout its lifetime in response to environmental cues. The AC utilizes swarm and cellular automata techniques. It is closely modelled on the eukaryotic cytoskeleton which is responsible for giving the cell dynamic structure and function. The AC is tested in a simple chemotaxis experiment and is shown to effect morphological adaptation during the cell’s lifetime.

An Artificial Bee Colony Inspired Clustering Solution to Prolong Lifetime of Wireless Sensor Networks
It is very difficult and expensive to replace sensor node battery in wireless sensor network in many critical conditions such as bridge supervising, resource exploration in hostile locations, and wildlife safety, etc. The natural choice in such situations is to maximize network lifetime. One such approach is to divide the sensing area of wireless sensor network into clusters to achieve high ene...

متن کاملThe Effect of Artificial Aging Treatment and Lubrication Modes on the Cutting Force and the Chip Surface Morphology when Drilling Al-Si-Mg (A356) Cast Alloys
This article reports the effects of various artificial aging methods and lubrication modes (dry, mist, wet) on the recorded cutting forces and chip morphology in drilling Al-Si-Mg (A356) cast alloys. In the course of this work, the work part sampled were as-received alloy (T0), solution heat-treated alloy (SHT) and then aged alloys at 155°C, 180°C, and 220°C (T4, T6, T61, T7), respectively. The...
متن کاملIntensive Artificial Selection Jeopardizes Animals, Well-Being: A Short Review
Domestication of animals has had some important effects on physiology, morphology, behavior and well-being of domesticated animals. Conscious or goal directed selections on animals for increasing their productions has accelerated the rate of the changes, leading to some well-being defections. This paper notes some aspects of animal domestication in context of genetic science. Then explains how ...
