Self-organization and collective decision making in animal societies — •Jean-Louis Deneubourg — Unit if Social Ecology, Universite Libre de Bruxelles, 1050 Bruxelles, Belgium
This talk gives an overview on the collective decision making process in animal societies. Experiments with ants and other social insects show the formation of various self-organized patterns. As an example, route choice experiments with ants indicate that crowding is avoided by a change of the temporal organization of the ants.
