Self-organization in an ecosystem

Artificial Life and Robotics, 2002
An ecosystem, especially a food web, is essentially characterized as a many-body system in which the members interact with each other under the limitations of the energy and resources. We introduce a coevolutional population dynamics model for food webs which contains energy-conserving interactions, energy dissipation, and rules for changing the ...

Multicellular self-organization

Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2022
‘Hockey or watching the daisies grow’ — a drawing by Alan Turing’s mother — depicts eleven-year-old Alan staring at daisies while his friends play hockey in the background. This drawing aptly captures Turing’s early interest in biology. However, while his work on computation has flourished into modern computers and artificial intelligence, Turing’s ...

Self-organizing cities

Futures, 1997
Self-organization, that is to say, the phenomena by which a system self-organizes its internal structure independent of external causes, is a fundamental property, as we have seen in the preceding chapter, of open and complex systems. Such systems exhibit also phenomena of nonlinearity, instability, fractal structures and chaos — phenomena which are ...

Self-organizing trajectories

Pattern Recognition Letters, 2016
DBA results in oscillating curves if the number of nodes is high.Self-organizing trajectories produce high-quality trajectory averages.Exponential averaging allows real-time estimation of trajectory variance. Trajectories and parameterized curves are data types of growing importance.

Organizing With Self-Organization?

2020
This chapter aims at exploring the ramifications of the strategic usage of Facebook in informal civic activism against the yet-to-be-studied case of an African third wave democratic country. Focusing on the emergence of Sokols up to the unprecedented 2017 street demonstration in Cape Verde, it reviews findings from a multidimensional empiric-holistic ...

On self-organization in MANETs

Proceedings of the 2nd ACM international workshop on Foundations of wireless ad hoc and sensor networking and computing, 2009
The dynamic nature and network complexity of MANETs requires self organization to reduce the administrative need and complexity in network installation, maintenance, and management. We first show several network functions of MANETs that can be designed in a self-organized way, including topology control and the construction of connected dominating sets

Self-Organization and Information

Physica Scripta, 1987
Summary: This paper is concerned with processes of self-organization which can take place in both the inanimate and animate world. In particular, we study the question of what physics can contribute to the understanding of these processes. Its traditional disciplines of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, which are concerned with the behavior of ...

Stochastic Self-organization

Complex Systems, 2005
Starting from a random initial predisposition, the creation of a common piece of information in a network of sparsely communicating agents is the first step towards showing how order can be built from the bottom up rather than imposed from the top down. The model used for this study has been termed stochastic cellular automata (SCA).

A self-organizing flock of Condors

Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing, 2003
Condor provides high throughput computing by leveraging idle-cycles on off-the-shelf desktop machines. It also supports flocking, a mechanism for sharing resources among Condor pools. Since Condor pools distributed over a wide area can have dynamically changing availability and sharing preferences, the current flocking mechanism based on static ...
