Bioevaluation of world transport networks /
Slime mould Physarum polycephalum is a monstrous single cell well known for its task-solving abilities -- solves computational geometry and logical problems, navigates robots and generates music. The slime mould could also build motorways, highways and expressways. It is used to analyse transport ne...
