This post: points to an article about UK search and IR company Autonomy, introducing technology that "mimics" the behaviour of ants.
Also, info about a company named DolphinSearch that uses technology that utilizes the, "extraordinary precision with which dolphins locate and recognize objects. From this patented technology, the DolphinSearch system was developed as a collaborative effort between legal, audit and compliance professionals and technical experts." |
Looks like this ant technology is just an alert system like Google Alert? |
