This paper presents modeling, designs, and initial experimental results demonstrating successful untethered microscale flight of stress-engineered microscale structures propelled by thermal forces. These MEMS Microfliers are 300 μm×300 μm×1.5 μm in s...
In this contribution, we present a communication paradigm among nanodevices, based on acoustic vibrations for medical applications. We consider a swarm of nanorobots able to communicate in a distributed and decentralized fashion, propelled in a biolo...
Spiking neural P systems (SN P systems, for short) are a class of parallel and distributed computation models inspired from the way the neurons process and communicate information by means of spikes. In this paper, we consider a new variant of SN P s...
Biologists often need to know the set S' of genes that are the most functionally and semantically related to a given set S of genes. For determining the set S', most current gene similarity measures overlook the structural dependencies among the Gene...
Primers plays important role in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) experiments, thus it is necessary to select characteristic primers. Unfortunately, manual primer design manners are time-consuming and easy to get human negligence because many PCR const...
Studying the similarity of diseases can help us to explore the pathological characteristics of complex diseases, and help provide reliable reference information for inferring the relationship between new diseases and known diseases, so as to develop ...
This paper proposes an extension of spiking neural P systems with rules on synapses (SNP-RS systems) working in competitive strategy, called competitive SNP-RS (CSNP-RS systems). In CSNP-RS systems, the spikes are viewed as a kind of competitive reso...
The creation of communication interfaces between abiotic and biotic systems represents a significant research challenge. In this work, we design and model a system linking the biochemical signaling pathways of mammalian cells to the actions of a mobi...
Spiking neural P systems (SN P systems) are a class of distributed parallel computing devices inspired from the way neurons communicate by means of spikes. In most applications of SN P systems, synchronization plays a key role which means the executi...
