The new proposal on environmental control imitating 1/f/sup n/ fluctuation phenomenon of thermal environment realized by biological activity

We focused our interest not only on control of thermal environment by social bee colonies but also on the fluctuating phenomena in their nest. The temperature field generated by bees causes the phenomena of 1/f fluctuation to occur in the nest and that there is a possibility that such 1/f fluctuation provides immature stages with a preferable environment that could be a cure space. This result, obtained from social insect colonies, seems to be applicable in human life to the creation of cure space in hospices and welfare facilities.
