Current biological theory has no commonly accepted view on the phenomenon of aging. On the one hand it is considered as an inescapable degradation immanent to complex biological sy...
Abstract. The colonies of certain species of ants, for example Pogonomyrmex barbatus, exhibit changes in behaviour as the colonies grow older, despite nearly all of the individual ...
Aggressive technology scaling has an ever-increasing adverse impact on the lifetime reliability of microprocessors. This paper proposes a novel simulation framework for evaluating...

In a multi-robotic system, robots interact with each other in a dynamically changing environment. The robots need to be intelligent both at the individual and group levels. In thi...
