This paper discusses applying the social behaviour of bees to the web search. We proposed an on-line search of the user's predefined group of pages. In particular, this approach is based on our model of a bee hive being augmented by a model of the behaviour of bees outside the hive and by the method of assigning the page quality. With regard to the advantages of this approach, the hive as a whole seems to be able to determine the best routes of the search and reject the bad ones. This has been indicated by our first exploration tests as we report in the paper. However, a comprehensive experimentation is necessary before definitive conclusions can be made.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
