Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are a particular type of Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) in which the vehicles are considered as nodes. Due to rapid topology changing and frequent disconnection makes it difficult to design an efficient routing protocol for routing data among vehicles. In this paper, a new routing protocol based on glowworm swarm optimization algorithm is provided. Using the g...

In this paper, a novel hybrid glowworm swarm optimization (HGSO) algorithm is proposed. Firstly, the presented algorithm embeds predatory behavior of artificial fish swarm algorithm (AFSA) into glowworm swarm optimization (GSO) algorithm and combines the improved GSO with differential evolution (DE) on the basis of a two-population co-evolution mechanism. Secondly, under the guidance of the fea...

Glowworm swarm optimization algorithm is one of the most novel algorithms based on swarm intelligence and inspired from light emission behavior of glowworms to attract a peer or prey in nature. The main application of this algorithm is to occupy all local optima of multi modal functions. This algorithm has shown some such weaknesses in global search as low convergence rate, not so much accuracy...

The diversity and applicability of swarm intelligence is increasing everyday in the fields of science and engineering. Swarm intelligence gives the features of the dynamic features optimization concept. We have used swarm intelligence for the process of feature optimization and feature selection for content-based image retrieval. The performance of content-based image retrieval faced the proble...

In mobile wireless sensor network, coverage and energy conservation are two prime issues. Sensor movement is required to achieve high coverage. But sensor movement is one of the main factors of energy consumption in mobile wireless sensor network. Therefore, coverage and energy conservation are correlated issues and quite difficult to achieve at the same time. In this paper, these conflicting i...
