    "abstract": "Using a simple model for the trail formation of ants, the relation between\ni)the schedule of feeding which represents the unsteady natural environment,\nii)emerging patterns of trails connecting a nest with food resources, and\niii)the foraging efficiency is studied. Simulations and a simple analysis show\nthat the emergent trail pattern flexibly varies depending on the feeding\nschedule by which ants can make an efficient foraging according to the\nunderlying unsteady environment.",
