Both human and insect societies depend on complex and highly coordinated infrastructure
systems, such as communication networks, supply chains and transportation networks. Like …

Transport networks serve critical functions in biological and engineered systems, and yet
their design requires trade-offs between competing objectives. Due to their sessile lifestyle …

We consider transportation over a strongly connected, directed graph. The scheduling
amounts to selecting transition probabilities for a discrete-time Markov evolution which is …

Biological systems are typically dependent on transportation networks for the efficient
distribution of resources and information. Revealing the decentralized mechanisms …

Our account begins in 1931/1932, when one of the fathers of quantum theory, Erwin
Schrodinger, proposed a Gedankenexperiment to comprehend the propagation of a cloud of …

Many classes of active matter develop spatial memory by encoding information in space. We
present a framework based on mathematical billiards, wherein particles remember their past …

Simple Summary The red wood ants are considered to be one of the main ecosystem
engineers and keystone species of the habitats in which they exist. Most of the species from …

The problem of increased travel time due to congestion on roads is gaining wide attention of
researchers these days. Several approaches have been proposed to improve this problem …

The ability to navigate through an environment is critical to most organisms' ability to survive
and reproduce. The presence of a memory system greatly enhances navigational success …

Biological systems have adapted to environmental constraints and limited resource
availability. In the present study, we evaluate the algorithm underlying leaf venation (LV) …
