+ * - CRDT-based collective memory for conflict-free synchronization
+ * - Gossip protocol for network discovery and knowledge propagation
+ * - Byzantine fault-tolerant consensus for collective decisions
+ * - Swarm intelligence algorithms (ACO, PSO) for optimization
+ * - Self-healing mechanisms with automatic recovery
