Stigmergy within web modelling languages : positive feedback mechanisms [PDF]
Stigmergy is a biological term originally used when discussing insect or swarm behaviour, and describes a model supporting environment-based communication separating artefacts from agents.

Understanding the Hygienic Behavioral Dynamics of Ants Using Multi‐State Models
Leaf‐cutting ants adjust grooming to pathogen risk and vulnerable nestmates. Multi‐state Markov models reveal shorter, frequent self‐grooming bouts and reduced allogrooming persistence under stress, optimizing social immunity via stigmergic decision‐making.

Self-generated trail networks promote aggregation in multicellular bacteria Myxococcus xanthus [PDF]
Organismal development is strongly influenced by the environment, which organisms can, in turn, actively modify. However, how such self-driven environmental changes shape multicellular development remains poorly understood.

This work presents a non‐cooperative target tracking game strategy that leverages agents’ directional sensing capabilities and introduces a tracking metric function to evaluate and motivate the tracking tasks. Utilizing the iterative linear quadratic game (ILQG) algorithm, this work considers the potential interactive behaviors between defenders and ...

Abstract Locality‐based social media (LBSM) allow members of the community to exchange news, connect with local people, and raise awareness of problems such as crime. This study aims to better understand the influence of LBSM on perceptions of community crime, safety, and crime prevention.

Nature's Design's: The Biology of Survival [PDF]
Life has existed on earth for at least 3.95 billion years. All along, the flame of life has been successfully passed on from generation to generation, and species to species across an immense temporal span.

Practices of stigmergy in architectural work
Actors coordinate their cooperative efforts by acting on the evidence of work previously accomplished. The paper introduces, on the basis of a field study, the concept of stigmergy to the analysis of coordinative practices in architectural work. It distinguishes between practices of stigmergy and articulation work.

Abstract Increasing the resilience of modern infrastructure systems is recognized as a priority by both the International Council on Systems Engineering and the National Academy of Engineering. Resilience answers the key stakeholder need for a stable and predictable system by withstanding, adapting to, and recovering from unexpected faults.

Genetic stigmergy: Framework and applications [PDF]
Stigmergy has long been studied and recognized as an effective system for self-organization among social insects. Through the use of chemical agents known as pheromones, insect colonies are capable of complex collective behavior often beyond the scope of
