Abstract

This article presents our concept of an artificial hormone system for realizing a completely decentralized self-organizing and real-time capable task control mechanism using self-X properties. Besides the fundamentals of the prior hormone concept and the implementation model, we present latest results of our research: evaluation and superiority analysis of a AHS-controlled SoC towards other approaches in centralized or partly decentralized manner like feedback controllers and complex multi-agents. Furthermore we validate and compare the overheads for size, communication and computation in relation to the improvement in system reliability.
