An Upper and Lower Bound for the Convergence Time of House-Hunting in Temnothorax Ant Colonies
We study the problem of house-hunting in ant colonies, where ants reach consensus on a new nest and relocate their colony to that nest, from a distributed computing perspective. We propose a house-hunting algorithm that is biologically inspired by Temnothorax ants. Each ant is modeled as a probabili...
