+//! Entropy-Based Consensus for Swarm Intelligence
+//!
+//! Implements entropy-minimizing negotiation between swarm nodes.
+//! Consensus is achieved when belief entropy falls below threshold,
+//! indicating the swarm has converged to a shared decision.
+//!
+//! ## Theory
+//!
+//! Shannon entropy measures uncertainty in a probability distribution:
+//!   H = -SUM(p_i * log2(p_i))
+//!
+//! Low entropy = high certainty = convergence
+//! High entropy = uncertainty = negotiation needed
+//!
+//! ## Algorithm
+//!
+//! 1. Each node maintains belief probabilities for decisions
+//! 2. Nodes exchange beliefs with peers (gossip)
+//! 3. Beliefs are averaged: p_new = 0.5 * p_local + 0.5 * p_peer
+//! 4. Convergence when H < threshold (e.g., 0.1)
+//!
+//! ## References
+//!
+//! - Degroot consensus model
+//! - Entropy-based stopping criteria

+//!
+//! ## Usage
+//!
+//! ### Entropy Consensus
+//!
+//! ```rust,ignore
+//! use ruvector_edge_net::swarm::{EntropyConsensus, Decision};
+//!
+//! // Create consensus for task routing decision
+//! let consensus = EntropyConsensus::with_threshold(0.1);
+//!
+//! // Add options with initial beliefs
+//! consensus.set_belief(1, 0.6);  // Route to node 1
+//! consensus.set_belief(2, 0.4);  // Route to node 2
+//!
+//! // Negotiate with peer beliefs
+//! let peer_beliefs = peer.get_beliefs();
+//! consensus.negotiate(&peer_beliefs);
+//!
+//! // Check for convergence
+//! if consensus.converged() {
+//!     let decision = consensus.get_decision().unwrap();
+//!     println!("Consensus reached: route to node {}", decision);
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!
+//! ### Collective Memory
+//!
+//! ```rust,ignore
+//! use ruvector_edge_net::swarm::{CollectiveMemory, Pattern, RacEvent};
+//!
+//! let memory = CollectiveMemory::new("node-1");
+//!
+//! // Share a learned pattern
+//! let pattern = Pattern::new(
+//!     "task-routing-v1".to_string(),
+//!     vec![0.5, 0.3, 0.2],  // Embedding
+//!     0.95,                  // Quality
+//!     100,                   // Sample count
+//!     "node-1".to_string(),
+//! );
+//! let rac_event = memory.share_pattern(&pattern);
+//! swarm.publish(TOPIC_MODEL_SYNC, &serialize(&rac_event)?);
+//!
+//! // Receive pattern from peer
+//! let peer_event = deserialize::<RacEvent>(&data)?;
+//! if memory.receive_pattern(&peer_event) {
+//!     println!("Pattern accepted for consolidation");
+//! }
+//!
+//! // Consolidate during idle periods
+//! let consolidated = memory.consolidate();
+//! println!("Consolidated {} patterns", consolidated);
+//! ```
+//!
+//! ## Integration with RAC
+//!
+//! The swarm module uses RAC (RuVector Adversarial Coherence) for:
+//!
+//! 1. **Pattern Assertions**: Shared patterns are RAC Assert events
+//! 2. **Challenge/Support**: Disputed patterns can be challenged
+//! 3. **Authority Policies**: Only trusted nodes can deprecate patterns
+//! 4. **Audit Trail**: All pattern sharing is logged in Merkle tree
+//!

+//! - Complementary learning systems theory

+//! Stigmergy-based coordination using digital pheromones for self-organizing task allocation
+//!
+//! Stigmergy is an indirect coordination mechanism where agents leave traces (pheromones)
+//! in the environment that influence the behavior of other agents. This creates emergent
+//! specialization without explicit communication.
+//!
+//! ## Features
+//!
+//! - **Emergent Specialization**: Nodes naturally gravitate to successful task types
+//! - **Self-Healing**: Failed task types lose pheromones, causing nodes to redistribute
+//! - **P2P Sync**: Pheromone trails shared via gossip protocol
+//! - **Anti-Sybil**: Deposit proportional to stake/reputation
+//! - **Task Routing**: High-pheromone nodes get priority for matching tasks
