Abstract
Apparatus and methods for assembling and deploying computing tasks using swarm intelligence are provided. A swarm intelligence network program may be installed on multiple automated teller machines ('ATMs') within a geographical area. When one of the ATMs loses connectivity with its financial institution, the ATM may create an ad-hoc swarm intelligence-based network with the other ATMs. The ad-hoc network may include a distributed ledger. The ATM may determine that a customer request for a financial transaction is valid and complete the request and record the transaction on the distributed ledger. The ATM may use hardware and software resources from the other ATMs on the ad-hoc network.
