Abstract

"This book provides a synthesis of present research on information processing in insect societies. The last two sections develop different though complementary approaches which either put the stress on the individual complexity of information management or refer to some simplicity of decision rules associated with amplifying phenomena."--BOOK JACKET. "Most scientists are unaware of these different approaches to information management in insect colonies in connection with their social organization. The book will provide a first comprehensive overview of both experimental and theoretical research in this field. Its purpose is to make the reader familiar with the methodology and ways of thinking followed by scientists at the leading edge of the field."--BOOK JACKET. "The book is aimed at postgraduate students and researchers working on social insects and insects that live in groups as well as any reader interested in behavioural ecology, communication and social organization."--BOOK JACKET.

Abstract

The last decades have brought a significant increase in research on acoustic communi­ cation in animals. Publication of scientific papers on both empirical and theoretical aspects of this topic has greatly increased, and a new journal, Bioacoustics, is entirely devoted to such articles. Coupled with this proliferation of work is a recognition that many of the current issues are best approached with an interdisciplinary perspective, requiring technical and theoretical contributions from a number of areas of inquiry that have traditionally been separated. With the notable exception of a collection edited by Lewis (1983), there have been fewvolumes predominatelyfocused on technical issues in comparative bioacoustics to follow up the earlyworks edited by Lanyon and Tavolga (1960) and Busnel (1963). It was the tremendous growth of expertise c:()ncerning this topic in particular that provided the initial impetus to organize this volume, which attempts to present fundamental information from both theoretical and applied aspects of current bioacoustics research. While a completely comprehensive review would be impractical, this volume offers a basic treatment of a wide variety of topics aimed at providing a conceptual framework within which researchers can address their own questions. Each presentation is designed to be useful to the broadest possible spectrum of researchers, including both those currently working in any of the many and diverse disciplines of bioacoustics, and others that may be new to such studies.
