Asexual and sexual replication in sporulating organisms
Bohyun Lee, Emmanuel Tannenbaum
This paper develops models describing asexual and sexual replication in sporulating organisms. Replication via sporulation is the replication strategy for all multicellular life, a…
Temporal differentiation and the optimization of system output
Emmanuel Tannenbaum
This paper develops a set of simplified dynamical models with which to explore the conditions under which temporal differentiation leads to optimized system output. By temporal dif…
When does division of labor lead to increased system output?
Emmanuel Tannenbaum
This paper develops a set of simplified dynamical models with which to explore the conditions under which division of labor leads to optimized system output, as measured by the rat…
Sleep as the solution to an optimization problem
Emmanuel Tannenbaum
This paper develops a highly simplified model with which to analyze the phenomenon of sleep. Motivated by Crick's suggestion that sleep is the brain's way of ``taking out the trash…
