Existing work on programmable self assembly has focused on deterministic performance guarantees--stability of desirable states. In particular, for any acyclic target graph a binary...
NOMADS is a Java-based agent system that supports strong mobility (i.e., the ability to capture and transfer the full execution state of migrating agents) and safe agent execution ...
