Birds behavior
Title: Simulation of Birds Behavior
Author: Denis Mišura (misd01)
Method: Agent-based model
Tool: NetLogo

Introduction and problem definition
Model and Method
The model is based on Craig Reynolds' Boids algorithm, which uses three fundamental rules:
- Alignment: Birds align their heading to match nearby individuals.
- Separation: Birds maintain a safe distance to avoid collisions.
- Cohesion: Birds move towards the center of nearby individuals to stay within the group.
Each bird operates independently, processing local information without global knowledge of the flock. The simulation is implemented in NetLogo, a platform designed for multi-agent simulations, which enables dynamic interactions and visualization of emergent patterns.

Conclusion
The simulation successfully simulates multiple scenarios and results. The result are depending purely on the setup of variables and therefore it is up to the user to change the outcome. As for the review of this simulation, I implemented everything that was approved in simulation concept, so I hope there should not be a problem with a bad evaluation.
