Stigmergy is a concept derived from social insect behavior, particularly in relation to how certain species, like ants or termites, coordinate their activities without direct communication. The term was first introduced by the French biologist Pierre-Paul Grassé in the 1950s. It describes a mechanism of indirect collaboration where the actions of individual agents (such as workers in a colony) leave environmental cues or modifications that influence the behavior of others.
