Bio-inspired communications among robots, sensors, and RFID tags

In this paper, we proposed several primate-inspired communication mechanisms including delayed-and-relayed, scent-trail, and communications among robots. We analytically model and simulate the scent-trail communication. We assume that robots (mobile sensors or mobile actuators) are capable of deploying /throwing-out sensors/RFID tags.
