The applications of biologically-inspired computing models into the distributed computing paradigm have potential benefits offering self-detection and self-reconfiguration capabilities of the computing systems. In the large scale distributed systems, the arbitrary failure of nodes and network partitions are the major challenges in terms of failure detection, fault-tolerance and maintainability. This paper proposes a novel distributed algorithm for self-detection and self-reconfiguration of distributed systems on the event of arbitrary node failures resulting in network partitioning. The algorithm is designed based on the hybridization of biological membrane computing model and cell-signaling mechanisms of biological cells. This paper presents the problem definition, design as well as performance evaluation of the proposed algorithm.
