The essence of biomemetic algorithms is the realization of emergent behaviors above and beyond the programmed behaviors - for example in this case, Air corridors and cooperative flight patterns emerge with dedicated program to establish them
As an Air Traffic Control protocol it offers (or could offer):
- High Density routing for swarms of uavs - and manned planes.
- Real-time deconfliction - immediate reaction to changes
- Infinite scalability - with only local communication.
- Deconfliction over non-airport hot spots like traffic, crime and accident scenes, borders, ships or oil rigs, ad hoc disaster and military sites.
- Mixed types and sizes of aircraft with unique separation requirements, power, speed etc...
- Deconflicts airplanes on the ground as well as in the air.
- Listen and avoid potential (small devices without transmitters).
- Can be used for ground vehicle, boats, or subs (provided they have localization).
