Isolation of Nuclei from Physarum flavicomum: Demonstration of Nuclear Cyclic Acid AMP Phosphodiesterase [PDF]
Cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity in the nucleus of the myxomycete Physarum flavicomum was demonstrated by cytochemical staining utilizing electron microscopy and by enzymatic assays with tritiated cyclic AMP as the substrate.

A recently modern stochastic optimization algorithm has been developed by observing the life of slime mold physarum polycephalum in nature. The algorithm is called the slime mold algorithm (SMA) with an excellent exploratory capacity and exploitation ...

Using transition systems to describe and predict the behaviour of structured excitable media
I show how transition systems can be applied to the naturally concurrent behaviour of excitable media. I consider structured excitable media, in which excitations are constrained to propagate only in defined narrow channels, and cannot propagate ...

How to Observe the Inner Space of a Complex Biological System through Speculative Simulation
We present an approach for composition and performance with speculative complex biological systems. This iterative approach engages with both the content and the context of science through generative visual and sound art. We offer a conceptual framing as

Belgium is amongst few artificial countries, established on purpose, when Dutch and French speaking parts were joined in a single unit. This makes Belgium a particularly interesting testbed for studying bio-inspired techniques for simulation and analysis

Logical Modelling of Physarum Polycephalum
We propose a novel model of unconventional computing where a structural part of computation is presented by dynamics of plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum, a large single cell. We sketch a new logical approach combining conventional logic with process calculus to demonstrate how to employ formal methods in design of unconventional computing media ...

Enactive Pragmatism and Ecological Psychology
A widely cited roadblock to bridging ecological psychology and enactivism is that the former identifies with realism and the latter identifies with constructivism, which critics charge is subjectivist.

A Cellular Automata Bioinspired Algorithm Designing Data Trees in Wireless Sensor Networks
Several studies present methods to economize energy in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) which is one of the most confining resources in these systems. This paper presents a bioinspired, cellular automata (CA) based model for constructing data trees that ...

Parallel Accelerated Virtual Physarum Lab Based on Cellular Automata Agents
Self-aware and self-expressive physical systems are inspiring new methodologies for engineering solutions of complex computing problems. Among many other examples, the slime mold Physarum Polycephalum exhibits self-awareness and self-expressiveness while

Alive matter distinguishes itself from inanimate matter by actively maintaining a high degree of inhomogenous organisation. Information processing is quintessential to this capability.
