so who would have thought that by watching and observing honeybees scientists would come up with a system that would cut down time for accessing popular sites. The Georgia Institue of Technology and the United Kingdom's Universtiy of Oxford was able to improve a web hosting company's revenue up to 20 percent. Craig Tovey the co-director of Georgia Tech found this piece of information in the late 80s. He claims that when he first saw the Bees " unusual communication system with the waggle dance" he might be able to understand more about controlling groups.
The way the waggle dance goes is that there is always two flower patches for a poor honeybee to choose from. One of the patches may have better testing honey than the other and the question how to get the best supply at the time. The answer is the waggle dance. Its a type of calculation of its this kind of flower, in this direction and so far away.
When a little honeybee has found the perfect food it will dance on the floor of the hive waggling its body from side to side. The bee gies off a motion, smell, and a sound that the other little members of the family can find. So how is this used with computer well Tovey and his colleagues use an advertisement board which sends messages to communicat the location of hot websites. When one server recives a user request an internal ad pops up to attract other servers. Isn't this UnBEEElievaable!!
