However, most agent-based simulations of group behavior do not provide a quantitative index for determining the point at which the flock emerges. We have developed an index of the aggregation of moving individuals in a flock and have provided an example of how it can be used to quantify the degree to which a group of moving individuals actually forms a flock.19 p.application/pdfeng(c) Ammons Scientific, 2007Adaptació (Psicologia)Comportament col·lectiuSimulació per ordinadorAdaptability (Psychology)Collective behaviorComputer simulationinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article5526932013-04-16info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
