“…More specifically, the testbed selected was a series of biological experiments, as provided in [20], so as the P. polycephalum to perform basic logical operations on a geometrically constrained substrate of two Boolean logic gates, where the proposed model performed adequately mimicking in an efficient way the biological organism behaviour. Up-to-date models have attempted to imitate this behaviour through either less or more complicated CA rules [33,24,5] or other methods [34,3,35,36,37,38,39,40,41]; however, the flexibility and the precision offered by the introduced model, through almost simpler rules, makes it also an excellent tool for modeling such organisms.…”

“…A new model of CA was developed, in order to combine CA [15,16], and multiagent modeling [22]. This new model integrates the parallel nature of CA along with the dynamic behavior in space and time of the multi-agent system without, however, increasing the complexity of the system.…”

“…Nonetheless, the abilities of P. polycephalum inspired scientists to invest efforts towards the simulation of its behavior and its usage to solve complex problems, like designing routes in information networks [11]. Some examples of the computerized approximation of the behavior of the plasmodium are a mathematical model with feedback of the tube dynamics [12], agent-based particle models [13] and cellular automata (CA) [14][15][16]We propose a novel approach towards computerizing the abilities of the slime mouldby designing a hybrid model, which combines CA and a multi-agent system is introduced.…”

“…A thoroughly studied laboratory experiment that the plasmodium of P. polycephalum is subjected to, is the imitation and optimization of human-made transport networks in several countries [78]. In order to accelerate the long lasting (3 to 5 days) biological experiments a CA model was proposed [79] that imitates the behaviour and, thus, the computational abilities of the plasmodium. In this Chapter, the development of the model and its assessment in simple and frequently studied problems were described.…”
