The computational power of networks of small resource-limited mobile agents is explored. Two new models of computation based on pairwise interactions of finite-state agents in populations of finite but unbounded size are defined. With a fairness condition on interactions, the concept of stable computation of a function or predicate is defined. Protocols are given that stably compute any predicate...
The field of distributed computing started around 1970 when people began to imagine a future world of multiple interconnected computers operating collectively. The theoretical challenge was to define what a computational problem would be in such a setting and to explore what could and could not be accomplished in a realistic setting in which the different computers fell under different administrative...
