Dynamic Load Balancing and Robustness in an Amorphous Self-Regulating Sequential Producer-Consumer Process
Overview The goal of this paper is to show that a general system of smart cells can be designed to cooperate to perform an arbitrarily complex, sequential, producer-consumer process that automatically performs adaptive load balancing. In more plain terms, a bunch of mobile agents can be programmed so that they can automatically turn themselves into an assembly line. That assembly line can repair itself if some parts fail, without central control or human interference. To demonstrate this goal, chemical factories (in simulation) should build using smart cells. It is difficult, through normal human-controlled chemical means, to reliably, precisely and efficiently construct molecules such as hydrocarbons, proteins and other small molecules.
