Collective intelligence and spatial mobility in mechanics and organics traffics
Journal Title: International Journal of Academic Research in Environment and Geography - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
The inquiry aims to ponder on the nature of human displacement in space and how the road scheme is applied by direct reflection of the basic mechanisms of human awareness as its base (philosophical, religious and political). The justification of the work is realized in contributing to reflect about congestion of car transits in large urban centers, bringing small contributions based on reflections on comparative examples and readings on the subject. The concept generated by the Theory of Swarms has been influencing how the logistics of transport should behave to improve their activities in a more economical way, and therefore, this research proposes reflections on the organic movements of animals collectivities (swarms, shoals, etc.) and mode of transit in most Asian cities which can help societies in big towns facing a major problem for their city: automotive traffic jams.
