How it works

The work develops an agent-based in silico model in which virtual individuals carry genomes encoding age-specific survival and reproduction probabilities. — An In Silico Model to Simulate the Evolution of Biological Aging
The model uses overlapping generations and discrete time intervals called stages. — An In Silico Model to Simulate the Evolution of Biological Aging
Each genome contains survival modules, reproduction modules, and a neutral region with no phenotypic effect. — An In Silico Model to Simulate the Evolution of Biological Aging
The model does not implement pleiotropy because each genetic module affects only one age-specific survival or reproduction trait. — An In Silico Model to Simulate the Evolution of Biological Aging
The model lacks direct genetic epistasis because modules independently determine phenotypic output without gene-to-gene interactions. — An In Silico Model to Simulate the Evolution of Biological Aging
The starting population is genetically heterogeneous, with seed genomes randomly generated to contain roughly equal numbers of 1s and 0s. — An In Silico Model to Simulate the Evolution of Biological Aging
