Abstract. This article presents the concept of an artificial hormone system for a completely decentralized realization of self-organizing task allocation. We show that tight upper bounds for the real-time behavior of self-configuration can be given. We also show two simulation results using the artificial hormone system demonstrating the operation of the artificial hormone system under different workloads.
This paper presents the architecture and conception of an organic middleware based on the yet existing, not organic middleware OSA+. We show new general design principles helping to establish the self-organizing middleware which can be used for totally different applications like robotics, warehouse management and the planning of a person's daily routine.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
