Abstract
The paper uses a behavior-based approach to tackle the problem of cooperation between distributed agents. It focuses on the use of self-organisation and dissipative structures to establish emergent functionality. Other principles such as randomness the subsumption architecture, and the gradient field are also used. Results of computational experiments are presented
