  abstract =	 {In several species of ants, workers cooperate to
                  retrieve large prey. Usually, one ant finds a prey
                  item, tries to move it, and, when unsucessful for
                  some time, recuits nestmates through direct contact
                  or chemical marking. When a group of ants tries to
                  move large prey, the ants change position and
                  alignment until the prey can be moved toward the
                  nest. A robotic implementation of this phenomenon is
                  described. Although the robotic system may not
                  appear to be very efficient, it is an interesting
                  example of decentralized problem-solving by a group
                  of robots, and it provides the first formalized
                  model of cooperative transport in ants.},
