Self-Organization in Sensor Networks using Bio-Inspired Mechanisms

Bio-inspired communication methodologies promise to enable more scalable self-organizing network infrastructures. Especially in the area of mobile ad hoc sensor networks, such solutions are required in order to qualify them for simplified development and deployment based on autonomously evolving mechanisms to work on global tasks, i.e. to show an emergent behavior. In this paper, we introduce the ongoing research of our Autonomic Networking group focused on the developments on efficient data dissemination in sensor networks. A particular example of how to study biological processes and to adapt the results in communication networks, the feedback loop mechanism, depicts the potentials of this research area.
