Adaptive Load Balancing Ad Hoc Routing Scheme Inspired by True Slime Mold
Journal of Telecommunications and Information Technology, 2019 Engineering neo-biomimetics, i.e. imitation models based on body structures and behavior of living organisms, relied upon to solve complex problems, have been studied in various fields. In distributed networks, such as ad-hoc networks and wireless sensor

Who Makes the Far Right? Exploring Membership Application Data of the National Front of Australia
Australian Journal of Politics &History, EarlyView.This paper addresses a problem for scholars examining the question of who supports far right political parties or movements. Due to the semi‐clandestine or oppositional nature of far right groups, historians, as well as those in adjacent disciplines, have often been unable to gain access to sufficient records or data to conduct analysis of who supports

Slime mould computes planar shapes [PDF]
, 2011 Computing a polygon defining a set of planar points is a classical problem of modern computational geometry. In laboratory experiments we demonstrate that a concave hull, a connected alpha-shape without holes, of a finite planar set is approximated by ...

On 3‐MMC: A Cathinone I Have Come to Know and Love
Anthropology of Consciousness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article attempts to complicate the mythology of a compound in a state of becoming. I will trace lightly its origins as a cultural disruptor and how I am implicated in this imperative. Introducing you to 3‐MMC will require multiple modes of storytelling and taking of liberties, drawing on literature reviews, practice‐based research, prose,

Controllable Intrinsic Surface Pattern Generation Using Slime Mold Simulations
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Surface‐based pattern simulations have proven valuable for texture design and scientific visualization, but existing methods face several limitations. Most simulations either target a narrow range of pattern types (e.g. spots, branching) or support a broad range of patterns at the cost of time‐consuming parameter tuning.

Coupled Oscillators with Chemotaxis
, 1998 A simple coupled oscillator system with chemotaxis is introduced to study morphogenesis of cellular slime molds. The model successfuly explains the migration of pseudoplasmodium which has been experimentally predicted to be lead by cells with higher ...

Considering students' basic psychological needs in feedback processes in the teaching of Swedish
Foreign Language Annals, EarlyView.Abstract This qualitative study investigated how teachers of Swedish as a second language in Finland perceive they enhance their students' language learning by considering the students' basic psychological needs in feedback processes. This study was conducted in a context where most students were disinclined to study Swedish.
