Embryonics: A Path to Artificial Life?
Electronic systems, no matter how clever and intelligent they are, cannot yet demonstrate the reliability that biological systems can. Perhaps we can learn from these processes, which have developed through millions of years of evolution, in our pursuit of highly reliable systems. This article discusses how such systems, inspired by biological principles, might be built using simple embryonic c...
متن کاملEmbryonics: Artificial Cells Made of Artificial Molecules
Embryonics (embryonic electronics) is a research project which attempts to draw inspiration form the world of biology to design better digital computing machines, and notably massively parallel arrays of processors. In the course of the development of our project, we have realized that the use of programmable logic circuits (field-programmable gate arrays, or FPGAs) is, if not indispensable, at...
متن کاملEmbryonics: Artificial Cells Driven by Artificial DNA
Embryonics is a long-term research project attempting to draw inspiration from the biological process of ontogeny, to implement novel digital computing machines endowed with better fault-tolerant capabilities. For this purpose FPGAs are extremely useful. However, through this project we designed MuxTree, a new coarse-grained FPGA, to implement our embryonic machines. This article focuses on the...
متن کاملArtificial Innate Immune System: An Instant Defence Layer of Embryonics
Will mankind ever be able to construct the elusive 'perpetuum mobile'? We are still far from being able to design systems with a guaranteed finite lifetime, let alone those that we can confidently expect to function unaided in the presence of faults. For example, the Beagle II Mars mission just failed due to malfunction and, worse, the Columbia Space Shuttle suffered the same fate with the loss...
متن کاملFrom Embryonics to POEtic Machines
The space of bio-inspired hardware can be partitioned along three axes: phylogeny, ontogeny, and epigenesis. We refer to this as the POE model. Our Embryonics (for embryonic electronics) project is situated along the ontogenetic axis of the POE model and is inspired by the processes of molecular biology and by the embryonic development of living beings. We will describe the architecture of mult...
