enSwarm – Swarm Facilitation and Decision Making
enSwarm provides companies and organisations with “swarm” based facilitation software tools that improve group efficiency and collaborative working. Our software provides a structure for facilitated workshops that incentivises people to behave in a more collaborative way. We want to enhance … Continue reading

Honeybee Swarms: how do Scouts Guide a Swarm of Uninformed Bees?
The organized movement of a swarm of honeybees towards its new home is a perplexing phenomenon because only a small number of scout bees, approximately 5%, know the direction in which the swarm has to move. Nevertheless, in the majority … Continue reading

Distributed Job Scheduling based on Swarm Intelligence: A survey
Scientists and engineers need computational power to satisfy the increasing resource intensive nature of their simulations. For example, running Parameter Sweep Experiments (PSE) involve processing many independent jobs, given by multiple initial configurations (input parameter values) against the same program … Continue reading

Swarmwise – Guide to Change the World using Swarm Methodology
Somewhere today, a loose-knit group of activists who are having fun is dropkicking a rich, established organization so hard they are making heads spin. Rich and resourceful organizations are used to living by the golden rule — “those with the … Continue reading

General Theory of Stigmergy: Modelling Stigma Semantics
Stigmergy is a biological term used when discussing a sub-set of insect swarm-behaviour describing the apparent organisation seen during their activities. Stigmergy describes a communication mechanism based on environment-mediated signals which trigger responses among the insects. This phenomenon is demonstrated … Continue reading

Applying Adaptive Swarm Intelligence Technology with Structuration in Web-based Collaborative Learning
One of the key challenges in the promotion of web-based learning is the development of effective collaborative learning environments. We posit that the structuration process strongly influences the effectiveness of technology used in web-based collaborative learning activities. In this paper, … Continue reading

Swarm Intelligence in Humans: Diversity can trump Ability
We identify some of the possibilities and limitations of human swarm intelligence (SI) using the response of the public to two types of cognitive problems. Furthermore, we propose a simple measure for the quantification of collective information that could form … Continue reading
The Biological Principles of Swarm Intelligence
The roots of swarm intelligence are deeply embedded in the biological study of self-organized behaviors in social insects. From the routing of traffic in telecommunication networks to the design of control algorithms for groups of autonomous robots, the collective behaviors … Continue reading
