✦ Synopsis


Fluid neural networks can be used as a theoretical framework for a wide range of complex systems as social insects. In this article we show that collective logical gates can be built in such a way that complex computation can be possible by means of the interplay between local interactions and the collective creation of a global field. This is exemplified by a NOR gate. Some general implications for ant societies are outlined.

A novel gas atomization process (GAP) was designed for mass producing high-quality spherical powders from molten polymers. The dependence of the powder characteristics, such as particle size and size distribution on the GAP control variables, and physical properties of the polymers were determined e

In this paper we address the problem of how to build a universal computer in an excitable medium. We construct a cellular automata model of a two-dimensional excitable medium (the 2 + medium) evolving in discrete time, with the following properties: every element of the medium has three states (rest

This paper is concerned with the invertibility of parallel operations definable on two-dimensional binary arrays by means of a local Boolean function. In this way, it contributes to the theory of cellular automata and may open new potentialities to cellular neural network applications. We provide a

This work demonstrates the control of chaos in chaotic neural networks. Chaotic neural networks, which were proposed by Aihara and others, consist of chaotic neuron models, and are based on research on the giant axon of squids and study of the Hodgkin-Huxley equation. They show a chaotic response th
