Majority Gates and Circular Computation in Slime Mould

Slime mould has been proven to be a fruitful living substrate for implementing a wide range of computing circuits from computational geometry to collision-based logical circuits to robot control. It is apparent, however, that constructing working real-time universal processors from the slime mould is non-trivial task. We explore here similarities between development of slime mould protoplasmic tubes, transportation of cytoplasm inside the tubes and dynamics of propagating patterns in cellular automata. Based on these analogies we will propose computing devices realisable in the living slime mould.
