Penna bit-string model with constant population
نویسندگان
چکیده
We removed from the Penna model for biological ageing any random killing Verhulst factor. Deaths are due only to genetic diseases and the population size is fixed, instead of fluctuating around some constant value. We show that these modifications give qualitatively the same results obtained in an earlier paper, where the random killings (used to avoid an exponential increase of the population) were applied only to newborns.

Size of the Stable Population in the Penna Bit-String Model of Biological Aging
In this paper the Penna model is reconsidered. With computer simulations we check how the control parameters of the model influence the size of the stable population.
متن کاملComplex networks generated by the Penna bit-string model: emergence of small-world and assortative mixing.
The Penna bit-string model successfully encompasses many phenomena of population evolution, including inheritance, mutation, evolution, and aging. If we consider social interactions among individuals in the Penna model, the population will form a complex network. In this paper, we first modify the Verhulst factor to control only the birth rate, and introduce activity-based preferential reproduc...
متن کاملLove kills Penna ageing model
Love may have been a female invention long ago, when the brain of genus homo became large and required more food. Thus the father was needed to help feed mother and baby. Pekalski [1] assumed mate selection to be governed by a Major Histocompatibility Complex MHC. In the same spirit now the sexual Penna ageing model is modified to include mate selection by an additional string of 32 bits for ea...
متن کاملDrill string Vibration Modeling Including Coupling Effects
Abstract: The governing equations of motion for a drill string considering coupling between axial, lateral and torsional vibrations are obtained using a Lagrangian approach. The result leads to a set of non-linear equations with time varying coefficients. A fully coupled model for axial, lateral, and torsional vibrations of drill strings is presented. The bit/formation interactions are assumed ...
متن کاملJustification of Sexual Reproduction by Modified Penna Model of Ageing
We generalize the standard Penna bit-string model of biological ageing by assuming, that each deleterious mutation diminishes the survival probability in every time interval by a small percentage. This effect is added to the usual lethal but age-dependent effect of the same mutation. We then find strong advantages or disadvantages of sexual reproduction (with males and females) compared to asex...
