✦ Synopsis

The interneuronal network that produces local bending in the leech is distributed, in the sense that most of the interneurons inFolved are activated in all forms of local bending, even those in which their outputs would produce inappropriate movements. Such networks have been found to control a number of different behaviors in a variety of animals. This article reviews three issues: the physiological and modeling observations that led to the conclusion that local bending in leeches is controlled by a distributed system; nhat distributed processing means for this and other behaviors; and why the leech interneuronal network may have evolved to be distributed in the first place.
