A new model of the reticular formation of the brainstem is proposed. It refers to the neuronal and glial cell systems. Thus, it is biomimetically founded. The reticular formation generates modes of behavior (sleeping, eating, etc.) and commands all behavior according to the most appropriate environmental information. The reticular formation works on an abductive logic and is dominated by a redundancy of potential command. Formally, a special mode of behavior is represented by a comprehensive cycle (Hamilton loop) located in the glial network (syncytium) and embodied in gap junctional plaques. Whereas for the neuronal network of the reticular formation, a computer simulation has already been presented; here, the necessary devices for computation in the whole network are outlined.

基于胶质神经元相互作用的脑干网状形成模型。


提出了脑干网状形成的新模型。它指的是神经元和神经胶质细胞系统。因此，它是仿生学建立的。网状结构产生行为模式（睡眠、饮食等），并根据最合适的环境信息指挥所有行为。网状结构遵循溯因逻辑，并以潜在命令的冗余为主导。形式上，一种特殊的行为模式由位于神经胶质网络（合胞体）中的综合循环（汉密尔顿环）代表，并体现在间隙连接斑块中。而对于网状结构的神经元网络，已经提出了计算机模拟；这里概述了整个网络中计算所需的设备。
