Modern scientific research has become largely a cooperative activity in theInternet age. We build a simulation model to understand the population-levelcreativity based on the heuristic ant colony algorithm. Each researcher has twoheuristic parameters characterizing the goodness of his own judgments and histrust on literature. In a population with all kinds of researchers, we findthat as the problem scale increases, the contributor distribution significantlyshifts from the independent regime of relying on one's own judgments to thecooperative regime of more closely following the literature. The distributionalso changes with the stage of the research problem and the computing poweravailable. Our work provides some preliminary understanding and guidance forthe dynamical process of cooperative scientific research in variousdisciplines.
