Zootechnologies --$tConclusion --$tWorks Cited 330 $aSwarming has become a fundamental cultural technique related to dynamic processes and an effective metaphor for the collaborative efforts of society. This book examines the media history of swarm research and its significance to current socio-technological processes. It shows that the hype about collective intelligence is based on a reciprocal computerization of biology and biologization of computer science: After decades of painstaking biological observations in the ocean, experiments in aquariums, and mathematical model-making, it was swarms-inspired computer simulation which provided biological researchers with enduring knowledge about animal collectives. At the same time, a turn to biological principles of self-organization made it possible to adapt to unclearly delineated sets of problems and clarify the operation of opaque systems - from logistics to architecture, or from crowd control to robot collectives. As zootechnologies, swarms offer performative, synthetic, and approximate solutions in cases where analytical approaches are doomed to fail. 410 0$aRecursions: theories of media, materiality, and cultural techniques. 606 $aSwarm intelligence 606 $aComputer simulation 606 $aSwarming (Zoology) 610 $aMedia History, Media Theory Swarm Intelligence, Computer Simulation, Animal Collectives. 615 0$aSwarm intelligence. 615 0$aComputer simulation. 615 0$aSwarming (Zoology) 676 $a006.3824 700 $aVehlken$b Sebastian$0788383 702 $aPakis$b Valentine A. 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996433045403316 996 $aZootechnologies$91991590 997 $aUNISA LEADER 01751nam 2200409z- 450 001 996344237803316 005 20231214133635.0 010 $a3-8452-2082-1 035 $a(CKB)4340000000009157 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/55774 035 $a(EXLCZ)994340000000009157 100 $a20202102d2009 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aPatentability Requirements for Nanotechnological Inventions$eAn Approach from the European Patent Convention Perspective 210 $cNomos Verlagsgesellschaft mbH & Co.
