Slime mould algorithm: A new method for stochastic optimization

open access: yesFuture Generation Computer Systems, 2020
In this paper, a new stochastic optimizer, which is called slime mould algorithm (SMA), is proposed based on the oscillation mode of slime mould in nature.

Slime

open access: yes
Slime has always stirred the imagination and evoked strong responses. It is as central to life and growth as to death, degeneration, and rot. Slime heals and cures; it also infects and kills. Slime titillates and terrifies. It fascinates children and is the horror in stories and the disgusting in fridges. Slime is part of good sex.

Study on slime robot (proposal of slime robot and design of slim slime robot)

Proceedings. 2000 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS 2000) (Cat. No.00CH37113), 2002
The authors call the group of flexible deformation robots with multiple degrees of freedom "slime robots" (SRs). First the configuration of a robot with multiple pneumatic actuators is described. This configuration makes the most of the characteristics of a slime robot.

Trophic Slime, Allergic Slime

American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology, 2000
The epithelium of the respiratory mucosa provides a barrier against injurious luminal agents, including bacteria, enzymes, and toxins. The normal respiratory epithelium is coated with mucus, which provides a variety of protective functions, including protection of the lower airways from dehydration and from damaging airborne irritants, particles, and ...

The perfect slime

Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2011
The biofilm mode of life is only possible because biofilm organisms are transiently immobilized in a matrix of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), also known as "slime". The matrix can be considered an emerging property of microorganisms, allowing them to form stable synergistic consortia, supporting interaction by signaling molecules and ...

Slime Mold Lectins

1982
Publisher Summary This chapter describes the slime mold lectins. A lectin is a sugar-binding protein of non-immune origin that agglutinates cells or precipitates glycoconjugates. The assay with which the lectins are identified is the hemagglutination assay.

On chirality of slime mould

Biosystems, 2016
Left-right patterning and lateralised behaviour is an ubiquitous aspect of plants and animals. The mechanisms linking cellular chirality to the large-scale asymmetry of multicellular structures are incompletely understood, and it has been suggested that the chirality of living cells is hardwired in their cytoskeleton. We examined the question of biased
