Fine-grained computational networks based on silicon specks or smart dust bear some similarities with Dictyostelium amoebae which aggregate in the soil to form multi-cellular slugs for their survival. The talk will explore some of these similarities and describe a simulation platform - BiSim - for running large-scale simulations of highly-decentralised networks of biological or binary processing units which employ simple asynchronous communication protocols.
