Computer programmers are taking the honey bee as a model
The increasing rise in the level of shopping over the Internet is bringing a number of major problems in its wake. Customer shopping behavior may be entirely different to that which is generally expected, and may differ among customers. The variable traffic resulting from this leads to sudden loading for on-line sales Internet servers. (Server: a computer in a network that stores application programs and data files accessed by the other computers in the network.) Experts from Oxford University and the Georgia Institute of Technology are working together in order to develop technologies to manage such loading. The researchers are taking a community whose traffic has already been effectively regulated as a role model. It is the behavior of honey bee colonies that is being imitated in technologies aimed at easing the burden on servers at times of exceptionally heavy traffic.
For the rest;
