Study of Biologically-inspired Network Systems: Mapping Colonies to Large-scale Networks

چکیده
Natural systems can offer important concepts for modeling network systems. A biologically-inspired discrete-event modeling approach is described for studying networks’ scalability and performance traits. Key adaptive and emergent attributes of honeybees and their societal properties are incorporated into a set of simulation models that are developed using the Discrete Event System Specification approach. We describe our approach which is based on mapping the behavior of the honeybees to discrete event models. Large-scale network models are simulated and evaluated to show the benefits of nature-inspired network models.

Bio-inspired homogeneous multi-scale place recognition
Robotic mapping and localization systems typically operate at either one fixed spatial scale, or over two, combining a local metric map and a global topological map. In contrast, recent high profile discoveries in neuroscience have indicated that animals such as rodents navigate the world using multiple parallel maps, with each map encoding the world at a specific spatial scale. While a number ...

Abstract: Since distribution networks have a large share of the losses in power systems, reducing losses in these networks is one of the key issues in reducing the costs of global networks, including issues Which has always been considered. In this thesis, the reconfiguration of the distribution network in the presence of distributed generation sources (DGs) with respect to two types of bus, P ...

For many years, purchasing and supplier performance evaluation have been discussed in both academic and industrial circles to improve buyer-supplier relationship. In this study, a novel model is presented to evaluate supplier performance according to different purchasing classes. In the proposed method, clustering analysis is applied to develop purchasing portfolio model using available data in...
متن کاملBiologically Inspired Optimization of Building District Heating Networks
In this paper we show that a biologically inspired modelcan be successfully applied to problems of building optimal districtheating network. The model is based on physiological observations of the true slime mold Physarumpolycephalum, but can also be used for path-finding in the complicated networks of mazes and road maps. A strategy of optimally building heating distribution network was guided...
متن کاملModeling discrete event scalable network systems
Scalability in simulation tools is one of the most important traits to measure performance of software. The reason is that today’s Internet is the main instance of a large-scale and highly complex system. Simulation of Internet-scale network systems has to be supported by any simulation tool. Despite this fact, many network simulators lacks support for building large models. In this work, in or...
