Abstract :
This paper is concerned with the evolutionary emergence of collective intelligence and agent communication of an artificial pheromone. As the stage of evolution, we introduce the ant war environment in which two colonies of ants compete in order to acquire more food items. Throughout the simulation of evolution we confirmed the emergence of sense of artificial pheromone and collective intelligence of artificial ants
