A continuous model of ant foraging with pheromones and trail formation

open access: yes, 2014
We propose and numerically analyze a PDE model of ant foraging behavior. Ant foraging is a prime example of individuals following simple behavioral rules based on local information producing complex, organized and ``intelligent'' strategies at the ...

Hop-Based dynamic fair scheduler for wireless Ad-Hoc networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In a typical multihop Ad-Hoc network, interference and contention increase when flows transit each node towards destination, particularly in the presence of cross-traffic.

Ants and Bees [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1875
IN his recent paper on “Ants and Bees,” Sir John Lubbock is reported to have said—alluding to the bees which had tasted the honey he had set for them:— “If bees had the means of communicating knowledge, no doubt these bees would have told the others in the hive where they could obtain a good store of honey with very little trouble, and would have ...

Modelling of self-driven particles: foraging ants and pedestrians [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Models for the behavior of ants and pedestrians are studied in an unified way in this paper. Each ant follows pheromone put by preceding ants, hence creating a trail on the ground, while pedestrians also try to follow others in a crowd for efficient and ...

Advances in Topological Thermoelectrics: Harnessing Quantum Materials for Energy Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Topological materials offer a novel platform for thermoelectric energy conversion through unique band features, including band inversion, linear Dirac bands, surface states, and Berry curvature. These quantum characteristics enable enhanced longitudinal and transverse thermoelectric effects, establishing topological thermoelectrics as a promising ...

Near Optimal Channel Assignment for Interference Mitigation in Wireless Mesh Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In multi-radio multi-channel (MRMC) WMNs, interference alleviation is affected through several network design techniques e.g., channel assignment (CA), link scheduling, routing etc., intelligent CA schemes being the most effective tool for interference ...
