There are 2 elements that make ‘‘crowding’’ interesting— mechanism (causality) and manifestation (effect). In our companion paper, Larry Roberts addresses mechanisms. Here, we focus on manifestation. As ecologists, it is difficult to get too excited about Clark Read’s paper on the ‘‘crowding effect’’ in cestodes, at least initially.

There are crowds, and then there are crowds…
2009I am constantly intrigued by the way that some sort of collective web-based intelligence seems to cause specific issues to pop up in multiple places at the same time.

Adjunct proceedings of the 25th annual ACM symposium on User interface software and technology, 2012
Automated systems are not yet able to engage in a robust dialogue with users due the complexity and ambiguity of natural language. However, humans can easily converse with one another and maintain a shared history of past interactions. In this paper, we introduce Chorus, a system that enables real-time, two-way natural language conversation between an ...

Geofencing mechanisms allow for timely message delivery to the visitors of predefined target areas. However, conventional geofencing approaches poorly support mobile data collection scenarios in which experts need in situ assistance. In this paper, we propose crowd geofencing environments, in which a large number of crowdworkers generate geofences to ...

Conceptions of Crowds and Crowding
1986In a volume that has as its topic theories of crowd mind and behavior, taken as one origin of social psychology, it appears consistent if not compelling to include theories of crowding. The linguistic relationship of “crowds” and “crowding” is most evident in the English language, in which “crowd” can be used as a noun or a verb. In the German language,

Learning Crowd Motion Dynamics with Crowds
Proceedings of the ACM on Computer Graphics and Interactive TechniquesReinforcement Learning (RL) has become a popular framework for learning desired behaviors for computational agents in graphics and games. In a multi-agent crowd, one major goal is for agents to avoid collisions while navigating in a dynamic environment.

Crowding out or crowding in? [PDF]
, 2005 Intergenerational support regains attention in course of population aging. This paper focuses on the relationship between private and public financial transfers to and from the elderly. Based on German data we find that the giving of private transfers is influenced by public transfers.

Anhydrobiosis, the exceptional adaptation of some organisms to enter a state approaching suspended animation after losing most cellular water, has fascinated scientists and non-scientists since Anthony van Leeuwenhoek described the phenomenon over 300 years ago.
