Ant-based load balancing in telecommunications networks
868
TL;DR: A novel method of achieving load balancing in telecommunications networks using ant-based control, which is shown to result in fewer call failures than the other methods, while exhibiting many attractive features of distributed control.

A taxonomy of biologically inspired research in computer networking
TL;DR: Why biology and computer network research are such a natural match is explored, and research efforts are most successful when they separate biological design from biological implementation - that is to say, when they extract the pertinent principles from the former without imposing the limitations of the latter.
Co-robotic harvest-aid platforms: Real-time control of picker lift heights to maximize harvesting efficiency
Zhenghao Fei,Stavros Vougioukas +1 more
TL;DR: A conventional harvesting platform is transformed into a collaborative robot (co-robot) platform and the model-based control algorithm maximizes the machine’s harvesting speed by changing the height at which each worker harvests as a response to incoming fruit load because it matches fruit-picking labor supply and demand.

Simon Garnier,Maud Combe,Maud Combe,Christian Jost,Christian Jost,Guy Theraulaz,Guy Theraulaz +6 more
TL;DR: The importance of the shape of trail networks for foraging in ants is revealed and the underestimated role of the geometrical properties of transportation networks in general is emphasized.
A Review of Routing Protocols Based on Ant-Like Mobile Agents
TL;DR: A survey on the routing protocols based on ant-like mobile agents that are often employed in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks, focusing especially on biologically-inspired routing algorithms that are based on the ant colony optimization algorithm.
