Title
Congestion Control in Ant Like Moving Agent Systems.
Abstract
In this paper we study the problem of congestion in system where agents move according to simple ant inspired movement rules. It is assumed that the agents have to visit a service station to refill their energy storage. After visiting the service station the ants can move randomly and fast. The less energy an agent has the slower it becomes and the more it moves in direction of the service station. Different methods for self-organized congestion control are proposed in this paper where the behavior of the agents compared to the original is not changed or is changed only slightly without the need to use any global information and without using additional sensory information. The proposed systems are investigated with.
