AntNet: Routing Algorithm for Data Networks based on Mobile Agents
نویسندگان
چکیده
AntNet is an innovative algorithm for packet routing in communication networks, originally proposed by M. Dorigo and G. Di Caro, in 1997. In AntNet, a group of mobile agents (or artificial ants) build paths between pair of nodes, exploring the network concurrently and exchanging obtained information to update the routing tables. This work analyzes AntNet and proposes improvements that were implemented, comparing their performance with respect to the original AntNet and other commercial routing algorithms like RIP and OSPF.

AntNet: A Mobile Agents Approach to Adaptive Routing
This paper introduces AntNet, a new routing algorithm for communications networks. AntNet is an adaptive, distributed, mobile-agents-based algorithm which was inspired by recent work on the ant colony metaphor. We apply AntNet to a datagram network and compare it with both static and adaptive state-of-the-art routing algorithms. We ran experiments for various paradigmatic temporal and spatial t...
