Paper Abstract:
|
Nature possesses the incredible ability to generate a number of autonomous processes which amaze scientists and
researchers. This paper makes also use of a phenomenon seen in nature which is called excitable media. It is believed
that, using this mechanism, self-star properties can be achieved.
In this document a novel approach using such occurrence is proposed. An environment simulating an excitation where
autonomous agents live was created, and the way this excitation makes these agents behave is presented. The results
show that using this methodology is a feasible way towards autonomic systems. |
