Hardware implementation of a biomimicking hybrid CA (2018)
Book Chapter
Madikas, M., Tsompanas, M., Dourvas, N., Sirakoulis, G., Jones, J., & Adamatzky, A. (2018). Hardware implementation of a biomimicking hybrid CA. In G. Mauri, S. El Yacoubi, A. Dennunzio, K. Nishinari, & L. Manzoni (Eds.), International Conference on Cellular Automata. Springer Nature

A hybrid model, combining a Cellular Automaton (CA) and a multi-agent system, was proposed to mimic the computation abilities of the plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum. This model was implemented on software, as well as, on hardware, namely on a Fie... Read More about Hardware implementation of a biomimicking hybrid CA.

Representation of shape mediated by environmental stimuli in Physarum polycephalum and a multi-agent model (2017)
Journal Article
Jones, J., Mayne, R., & Adamatzky, A. (2017). Representation of shape mediated by environmental stimuli in Physarum polycephalum and a multi-agent model. International Journal of Parallel, Emergent and Distributed Systems, 32(2), 166-184. https://doi.org/10.1080/17445760.2015.1044005

© 2015 Taylor & Francis. The slime mould Physarum polycephalum is known to construct protoplasmic transport networks which approximate proximity graphs by foraging for nutrients during its plasmodial life cycle stage. In these networks, nodes are r... Read More about Representation of shape mediated by environmental stimuli in Physarum polycephalum and a multi-agent model.

On coupled oscillator dynamics and incident behaviour patterns in slime mould Physarum polycephalum: emergence of wave packets, global streaming clock frequencies and anticipation of periodic stimuli. International Journal of Parallel, Emergent and Distributed Systems, 32(1), 95-118. https://doi.org/10.1080/17445760.2016.1156108

© 2016 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. Slime mould Physarum polycephalum is a single cell which physically oscillates via contraction of actomyosin in order to achieve motility. Several of its apparently ‘intelligent’ behavio...

Towards a Physarum learning chip (2016)
Journal Article
Whiting, J. G. H., Jones, J., Bull, L., Levin, M., & Adamatzky, A. (2016). Towards a Physarum learning chip. Scientific Reports, 6, Article 19948. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep19948

Networks of protoplasmic tubes of organism Physarum polycehpalum are macro-scale structures which optimally span multiple food sources to avoid repellents yet maximize coverage of attractants. When data are presented by configurations of attractants... Read More about Towards a Physarum learning chip.

Evaluation of French motorway network in relation to slime mould transport networks (2016)
Journal Article
Adamatzky, A., Allard, O., Jones, J., & Armstrong, R. (2017). Evaluation of French motorway network in relation to slime mould transport networks. Environment and Planning B: Urban Analytics and City Science, 44(2), 364-383. https://doi.org/10.1177/0265813515626924

© The Author(s) 2016. France has developed a high quality motorway system that has been rapidly rationalised and matured in the late 20th century yet has been founded on ancient, Roman infrastructures. The development of the motorway system is thus a... Read More about Evaluation of French motorway network in relation to slime mould transport networks.

Quantitative transformation for implementation of adder circuits in physical systems (2015)
Journal Article

On using compressibility to detect when slime mould completed computation (2015)
Journal Article
Adamatzky, A., & Jones, J. (2016). On using compressibility to detect when slime mould completed computation. Complexity, 21(5), 162-175. https://doi.org/10.1002/cplx.21645

© 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Slime mould Physarum polycephalum is a single cell visible by an unaided eye. The slime mould optimizes its network of protoplasmic tubes in gradients of attractants and repellents. This behavior is interpreted as compu...

© Richard Mayne, Andrew Adamatzky, and Jeff Jones. The plasmodium of slime mold Physarum polycephalum behaves as an amorphous reaction-diffusion computing substrate and is capable of apparently ‘intelligent’ behavior. But how does intelligence emerge... Read More about On the role of the plasmodial cytoskeleton in facilitating intelligent behavior in slime mold physarum polycephalum.
