It concerns questions such as what are the algorithmic challenges faced by the biological organism, and what are the algorithmic principals used in order to overcome these challenges. For example, when a group of ants finds a large piece of food and needs to decide its navigation rout back to the nest, what are the benefits and pitfalls of noise in their communication?} ***/ [[https://www.irif.fr/~pandit/|Amos Korman]] (IRIF) Amos Korman is co-chairing, and organizing the 6th Workshop on Biological Distributed Algorithms, to be held in London in **July, the 23rd**.
