Ant colony optimization theory: A survey
Research on a new metaheuristic for optimization is often initially focused on proof-of-concept applications. It is only after experimental work has shown the practical interest of the method that researchers try to deepen their understanding of the method’s functioning not only through more and more sophisticated experiments but also by means of an effort to build a theory. Tackling questions ...
متن کاملA survey on parallel ant colony optimization
Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a well-known swarm intelligence method, inspired in the social behavior of ant colonies for solving optimization problems. When facing large and complex problem instances, parallel computing techniques are usually applied to improve the efficiency, allowing ACO algorithms to achieve high quality results in reasonable execution times, even when tackling hard-to-s...
متن کاملA Survey of Ant Colony Optimization Algorithms for Telecommunication Networks
Optical and ad-hoc networks which fulfill the communications requirements of complex applications must meet the Quality of Service (QoS) demanded by these applications, such as transmission delay. These demands are hard to satisfy in the presence of unpredictable behavior in the environment such as interference, traffic congestion, etc. Algorithms based on Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) offer an...
متن کاملAnt Colony System Optimization
Successful heuristic algorithms for solving combinatorial optimization problems have mimicked processes observed in nature. Two highly successful families of algorithms that do this are simulated annealing and genetic algorithms. Here, a third family of algorithms, ant colony optimization is explored and implemented in C#. The test bed for evaluating the quality of solutions is based on several...
متن کاملAnt Colony Optimization
Swarm intelligence is a relatively novel approach to problem solving that takes inspiration from the social behaviors of insects and of other animals. In particular, ants have inspired a number of methods and techniques among which the most studied and the most successful one is the ant colony optimization. Ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm, a novel population-based and meta-heuristic app...
