Intracellular Cell Communication

Intracellular Communication describes two different communications:

1. Communication between the artificial cell and the network-node where the artificial cell resides. This communication is for example the request for some tasks by the network-node – e.g. packet-checking – or the request of information by the artificial cell – e.g. statistical network data.
2. Communication between two components in an artificial cell. This is an idea that an artificial cell consist of different components like a cell of the Human Body. Then, these components must communicate which is described as intracellular communication. Then, it would be possible to design artificial cells with a construction kit.

The intracellular communication of the first point – communication between the artificial cell and the network-node where the artificial cell resides – is fast, reliable and secure. Because it happens only in one network-node, it is just calling a method using an interface. Thus, communication bandwidth is not necessary. Furthermore, it is reliable if a network-node is not infected and secure because you cannot perform a man-in-the-middle-attack.
