Modelling survival and allele complementation in the evolution of genomes with polymorphic loci
S. Cebrat, D. Stauffer, J. S. Sa Martins +2
We have simulated the evolution of sexually reproducing populations composed of individuals represented by diploid genomes. A series of eight bits formed an allele occupying one of…
Simulated self-organisation of death by inherited mutations
J. S. Sa Martins, D. Stauffer, P. M. C. de Oliveira +1
An agent-based computer simulation of death by inheritable mutations in a changing environment shows a maximal population, or avoids extinction, at so intermediate mutation rate of…
A computer simulation of language families
Paulo Murilo Castro de Oliveira, Dietrich Stauffer, Soeren Wichmann +1
This paper presents Monte Carlo simulations of language populations and the development of language families, showing how a simple model can lead to distributions similar to the on…
Fragmentation Experiment and Model for Falling Mercury Drops
P. M. C. de Oliveira, C. A. F. Leite, C. V. Chianca +2
The experiment consists of counting and measuring the size of the many fragments observed after the fall of a mercury drop on the floor. The size distribution follows a power-law f…
Optimization of hierarchical structures of information flow
D. Stauffer, P. M. C. de Oliveira
The efficiency of a large hierarchical organisation is simulated on Barabasi-Albert networks, when each needed link leads to a loss of information. The optimum is found at a finite…
Ising Ferromagnet: Zero-Temperature Dynamic Evolution
P. M. C. de Oliveira, C. M. Newman, V. Sidoravicious +1
The dynamic evolution at zero temperature of a uniform Ising ferromagnet on a square lattice is followed by Monte Carlo computer simulations. The system always eventually reaches a…
