Abstract

In theoretical discussions of the potential effects of collective interactions in such biological systems, statistical physics principles and methodologies have been applied.


In order to enhance their capacity for collective computation, it has been suggested that such collective systems should function close to a phase transition, specifically a (pseudo-)critical point.

This paper will discuss the phenomenon of flocking that animal communities exhibit in biological systems.
