COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK USING EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY OF BACTERIA AS A MODEL FOR NODAL POLICY

摘要

The present invention provides an emergent network (10) that is autonomous atthe service level. Network nodes (20) have policies that enable them toprocess different types of service requests (a,b,c,d), with the processingearning the nodes "rewards". Successful nodes can pass some or all of theirpolicies to other nodes using the evolutionary biology of bacteria as a model.
