Packet Replication and Noise in Reliable End-to-end Molecular Communication
Journal Title: EAI Endorsed Transactions on Creative Technologies - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 9
Abstract
In modern communication systems, noise represents the source of errors that disturb useful information signals for communication. In biological systems, however, noise plays important roles for their functions. In this position paper, we point out that, in designing and engineering molecular communication systems, noise may be removed as in traditional communication systems, while it may be exploited as in biological systems. We first show our prior work on reliable end-to-end molecular communication systems that incorporate packet replication to improve the reliability of molecular communication. We then discuss how the molecular communication systems may be extended based on the observation that biological systems utilize noise for their functions.

Learning by playing: An LBG for the Fortification Gates of the Venetian walls of the city of Heraklion
Games in education have always been a tool for increasing motivation and interest of learners. We present Location-Based Games (LBG) as a tool to involve and motivate students in the learning process. LBGs require the pl...
A Mathematical Model of Game Refinement and Its Applications to Sports Games
This paper explores a mathematical model of game progress. We claim that a realistic model of the game progress during the in-game period is not linear but exponential. The second derivative value, i.e., acceleration in...
Evolutionary generation of game levels
This paper outlines an approach for evolutionary procedural generation of video game content. The study deals with the automatic generation of game level designs using genetic algorithms and the development of a fitness...
Sandtime: A Tangible Interaction Featured Sensory Play Installation For Children To Increase Social Connection
From the study of social-interaction enhanced gaming design, aimed at providing a public environment which supports tangible & social interactions among children, we designed Sandtime. Sandtime is a public installation d...
Interactive Installations for Spatial Access to Artistic Sketchbooks
A book is a book – or is it? With present-day, aordable technology, we can scale a book to become a spatial object, or even a space in itself, of almost arbitrary size. We describe our design of and experiences with a g...
