Abstract

The computer model of searching adaptive behavior is constructed and investigated. The model describes searching behavior of caddis fly larvae which inhabit creek bottoms and build their cases using hard particles of different size. Using large particles, the larva can build cases more quickly and effectively than with small particles, so it prefers large ones. Inertial switching between search tactics takes place. The model is compared with results of biological experiment. The results of simulation are adequate to biological data.
