Abstract

Self-organizing circuits are able to grow, to self-replicate, and to self-repair. These properties are implemented in hardware thanks to configuration, cloning and cicatrization mechanisms. They are realized by the control layer of the POEtic tissue, a data and signals cellular automata based circuit. Specified as a data-flow processor, the application and routing layers of the circuit compose a timer as an application example.
