<br>flocks using three simple rules: avoid crowding flockmates, steer to the<br>centre of the flock and move towards the average position of flock<br>mates. The results of these three rules can be seen in a little java<br>
applet on the page, and then you can scroll down for a huge collection<br>of links on this phenomenon.<br><br>If nothing else, it helps me understand why OST participants never run<br>into each
other. Of course my own internal metaphor generation engine<br>is running full steam...<br><br>Chris<br><span class="ad"><br></span></div><span class="ad"> <div> </div> <div> </div><p>
