A network cell with molecular agents that divides from centrosome signals

A novel model of network artificial chemistry (NAC) in which molecular agents with assembler programs move through the network is presented. By the execution of the agent programs, nodes rewire edges according to their own types (either hydrophilic or hydrophobic), and as a consequence, a global topological structure is created in the network. Using numerical experiments equipped with three agent types (centrosome, hydrogen, and van der Waals), it is demonstrated that the revised NAC is able to emulate the organization of a pseudo-lattice structure between hydrophilic nodes, repulsion between hydrophilic and hydrophobic nodes, and the division of a network cell actualized as a hydrophilic cluster.
