Iinjineli ngamanye amaxesha zibhenela kwindalo ukuze zikhuthazeke. USaket Navlakha kunye nososayensi wophando uJonathan Suen wafumanisa ukuba uhlengahlengiso lwe-algorithms-inkqubo yolawulo lwengxelo efanayo apho i-Intanethi ikhulisa ukugcwala kwedatha-zisetyenziswa ziinkqubo ezininzi zendalo ukuva nokuzinzisa indlela yokuziphatha, kubandakanya namakholoni eembovane, iiseli kunye. imithambo-luvo.
Iinjineli ze-Intanethi zihambisa idatha kwihlabathi jikelele kwiipakethi ezincinci, ezifana neimbovane. Njengoko uNavlakha echaza:
“Injongo yalo msebenzi ibikukuhlanganisa izimvo ezivela kumatshini wokufunda kunye noyilo lwe-Intanethi kwaye uzinxulumanise nendlela iimbovane ezitya ngayo.”
I-algorithm efanayo esetyenziswa ziinjineli ze-Intanethi isetyenziswa ziimbovane xa zikhangela ukutya. Ekuqaleni, ikoloni inokuthumela imbovane enye. Xa imbovane ibuya, inika inkcazelo malunga nokuba kungakanani ukutya eyakufumanayo nokuba kwathabatha ixesha elingakanani ukukufumana. Eli thanga lalithumela iimbovane ezimbini. Ukuba babuya nokutya, ikoloni inokuthumela ezintathu, ezine, ezintlanu, njalo njalo. Kodwa ukuba iimbovane ezilishumi zithunyelwa ngaphandle kwaye ezininzi azibuyi, ngoko ikoloni ayinciphi inani elithumelayo ukuya kwisithoba. Endaweni yoko, inqumla inani ngesixa esikhulu, ukuphinda-phinda (yithi isiqingatha) sento ebiyithumele ngaphambili: iimbovane ezintlanu kuphela. Ngamanye amazwi, inani leembovane liyongeza kancinane xa iimpawu zilungile, kodwa liyancipha kakhulu xa ulwazi lunegethivu. I-Navlakha kunye no-Suen baqaphela ukuba inkqubo isebenza nokuba iimbovane nganye ilahleka kwaye ihambelana nohlobo oluthile "lwe-additive-increase/multiplicative-decrease algorithm" esetyenziswa kwi-Intanethi.
USuen ucinga ukuba iimbovane zinokukhuthaza iindlela ezintsha zokukhusela iinkqubo zekhompyuter kubahlaseli okanye kuhlaselo lwekhompyutha. Iinjineli zinokuxelisa indlela indalo ekwazi ngayo ukumelana noluhlu lwezoyikiso kwimpilo nasekuphileni kwayo. USuen uyachaza:
“Indalo ibonakaliswe ukuba yomelele ngendlela emangalisayo kwiinkalo ezininzi eziphendula kutshintsho lwendalo. Kukhuseleko lonxibelelwano [nangona kunjalo] sifumanisa ukuba uninzi lwezixokelelwano zethu zinokuphazanyiswa, zinokophuka lula, kwaye azikho kuqina. Sifuna ukujonga indalo, esinda kuzo zonke iintlobo zeentlekele zemvelo.”
Ngelixa u-Suen eceba ukusebenzisa i-algorithms yendalo kwiinkqubo zobunjineli, i-Navlakha ingathanda ukubona ukuba izisombululo zobunjineli zinokubonelela ngeendlela ezizezinye zokuqonda umgaqo wofuzo kunye nolawulo lwempendulo ye-immune. UNavlakha unethemba lokuba "amacebo anempumelelo kwindawo enye anokukhokelela kuphuculo komnye."
INTO ONOKUYITHATHA KWELI NQAKU:
- When the ant returns, it provides information about how much food it got and how long it took to get it.
- In other words, the number of ants slowly adds up when the signals are positive, but is cut dramatically lower when the information is negative.
- Instead, it cuts the number by a large amount, a multiple (say half) of what it sent before.
