optimization - Swarm Intelligence - what kinds of problems are effectively solved? -


i looking practical problem (or implementations, applications) examples algoritmized using swarm intelligence. found multicriteria optimization 1 example. there others?

imho swarm-intelligence should added tags

are looking toy problems or more real-world applications?

in latter category know variants on swarm intelligence algorithms used in hollywood cgi animations such large (animated) armies riding fields of battle.

related more towards toy-problem end of spectrum can model large crowds similar algorithms, , use example simulate disaster-scenarios. afaik dutch institute tno has research groups on topic, though couldn't find english link googling.

one suggestion place start further investigation pdf book:

http://www.cs.vu.nl/~schut/dbldot/collectivae/sci/sci.pdf

that book has appendix (b) sample projects try , work on.

if want head start there several frameworks (scientific use) multi-agent systems such swarming intelligence (most of 'em written java think). of them include sample apps too. example have @ these:

repast: http://repast.sourceforge.net/repast_3/

swarm.org: http://swarm.org/

netlogo: http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo

post edited, added more info.
