Abstract: Abstract The complex and often coordinated behavior of swarms fascinates not only biologists but also computer scientists. Bird flocking and fish schooling are impressive examples of coordinated behavior that emerges without central control. Social insect colonies show complex problem-solving skills arising from the actions and interactions of nonsophisticated individuals.
