Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnt Colony Optimization for Capacitated Vehicle Routing ProblemW. F. Tan, L. S. Lee, Z. A. Majid, H. V. SeowProblem statement: The Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) is a well-known combinatorial optimization problem which is concerned with the distribution of goods between the depot and customers. It is of economic importance to businesses as approximately 10-20% of the final cost of the goods is contributed by the transportation process. Approach: This problem was tackled using an Ant Colony Optimization … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 15 Mar 2012 · 10,043 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Traffic Management Model for Multi-Protocol Label Switching NetworkE. R. Naganathan, S. RajagopalanProblem statement: MPLS is a highly scalable, protocol agnostic and data-carrying mechanism. Traffic engineering is the major research area in MPLS due to the emerging requirements of MPLS and the internet usage. A major objective of traffic engineering is to minimize or eliminate high-loss situations. Another goal of traffic engineering is to balance the Quality of Service (QoS) against the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 15 Oct 2011 · 7,094 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementation of Computer Aided Diagnosis System Based on Parallel Approach of Ant Based Medical Image SegmentationJayabalan Jaya, Keppanagowder ThanushkodiProblem statement: The aim of this study is to develop Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) system for the detection of brain tumor by using parallel implementation of ACO system for medical image segmentation applications due to the rapid execution for obtaining and extracting the Region of Interest (ROI) from the images for diagnostic purposes in medical field. Approach: For ROI segmentation, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 8,130 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLoad Balancing of Distributed Systems Based on Multiple Ant Colonies OptimizationAl-Dahoud Ali, Mohamed A. Belal, Moh’d Belal Al-ZoubiProblem statement: Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) provides a meta-heuristic optimization tool and collective intelligence model to several applications such as routing and load balancing. A lot of work found in the literature on using ACO in load balancing. However, as far as our knowledge, there was no work relating load balancing in distributed systems with ACO. Approach: In this study, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,209 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultiple Constraints for Ant Based Multicast Routing in Mobile Ad Hoc NetworksA. Sabari, K. DuraiswamyProblem statement: A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is one of the challenging environments for multicast. Since the associated overhead is more, the existing studies illustrate that tree-based and mesh-based on-demand protocols are not the best choice. The costs of the tree under multiple constraints are reduced by the several algorithms which are based on the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,868 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnt Colony Optimization for Solving Solid Waste Collection Scheduling ProblemsZ. Ismail, S. L. LohProblem statement: Southern Waste Management environment (SWM environment) is a company responsible for the collection and disposal of solid waste for the city of Johor Bahru, a city with over one million populations. The company is implementing an integrated solid waste management system where it involved in the optimization of resources to ensure the effectiveness of its services. Formulating this … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmbedding Malaysian House Red Ant Behavior into an Ant Colony SystemZ. A. Othman, H. M. Rais, A. R. HamdanProblem statement: Ant Colony System (ACS) is the most popular algorithm used to find a shortest path solution in Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). Several ACS versions have been proposed which aim to achieve an optimum solution by adjusting pheromone levels. However, it still has a room on an improvement. This research aims to improve the algorithm by embedding individual Malaysian … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,961 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordTasks Scheduling using Ant Colony OptimizationA. P. Shanthi, G. Umarani Srikanth, V. Uma Maheswari, Arul SiromoneyProblem statement: Efficient scheduling of the tasks to heterogeneous processors for any application is critical in order to achieve high performance. Finding a feasible schedule for a given task set to a set of heterogeneous processors without exceeding the capacity of the processors, in general, is NP-Hard. Even if there are many conventional approaches available, people have been looking at … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 25 Jul 2012 · 7,668 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordSystem Evolving using Ant Colony Optimization AlgorithmNada M.A. AL-SalamiProblem statement: The goal of automatic programming system is to create, in an automated way, a computer program that enables a computer to solve a problem. It is difficult to build an automatic programming system: They require carefully designed specification languages and an intimate knowledge base. Determine the relevance of mathematical system theory to the problems of automatic programming and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 30 May 2009 · 7,516 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Swarm-based Distance Vector Routing to Support Multiple Quality of Service (QoS) Metrics in Mobile Adhoc NetworksR. Asokan, A. M. Natarajan, A. NivethaQuality of Service support for Mobile Ad-hoc Networks is a challenging task due to dynamic topology and limited resource. The main purpose of QoS routing is to find a feasible path that has sufficient resources to satisfy the constraints. A fundamental problem in QoS routing is to find a path between a source and destination that satisfies two or more … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,665 accessesView PDFCite
