Communication in animals






Cellular Automata

For communication we use analog signals which are complex, but great. The advantages include sending numerous digital signals at one time (parallel computing) while utilizing a lot of computing power. Numerous problems arise from this approach such as signal degradation, noise, corrosion, phase delay, etc. If, on the other hand, we could transport signals over a digital network, rather than the analog one we use right now for digital media, we would eliminate a number of problems associated with the 'real' world.
