In this approach a chemical reaction is considered to take place when two chemically reactive entities A and B come within a certain distance, σ b, from one another.
Our architecture is based in the concept of sentient-objects, which are reactive entities distributed across the network that normally represent elements from the problem-domain.
In this version of the MAS, the whale-watching boats are represented as cognitive agents while the whales are simple reactive entities.
In comparison to plant litter, most of the C/V ratios were very small, ≤0.4 (Fig. 8), and indicate that the reactive entities of cinnamyl phenols, particularly p-coumaric acid, are either released or modified during the sedimentary diagenesis.
Consequently, emergent behavior may be observed in artificial electrical random networks of mixed resistive and reactive entities, thereby providing another basis to explain the occurrence of emergent behavior within the plasmodium.
Most experimental data gathered using fixed conditions and relatively short time scales provide little insight of long-term product fate, particularly when subsequently exposed to dynamic environments with redox gradients, diurnal (light/dark) cycles, and diverse reactive entities in both natural and engineered systems.
SAPHO syndrome, representing a constellation of synovitis, acne, palmo-plantar pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis, is now recognized as a distinct medical entity: a reactive infectious osteitis.
Three fundamentally different strategies for such access are investigated in this paper: (1) a reactive approach initiated by the requesting entity, and two versions of proactive approaches in which the entity that contains the information element actively propagates its changes to potential requesters, either (2) periodically or (3) triggered by changes of the information element.
