The book "Cognitive Architectures and Swarm Intelligence" offers a comprehensive examination of the research fields of cognitive architecture and swarm intelligence. It analyzes the concept of swarm and ambient intelligence, taking into account important metrics such as motivation, coordination, behavior, and performance. The newly developed swarm-ambient cognitive architecture enables a detailed analysis of the behavior of agents competing for tasks and survival within their environment. By applying various metrics, the behavior of swarm agents is thoroughly investigated, focusing on competitive performance, motivation levels, and social interaction both among themselves and with the environment. This academic book is aimed at readers interested in the theoretical and practical aspects of cognitive systems and their application in dynamic environments.
