— We present an ant model that solves a discrete foraging problem. We describe simulations and provide a complete convergence analysis: we show that the ant population computes t...
- Routing is one of the important steps in VLSI/ULSI physical design. The rectilinear Steiner minimum tree (RSMT) construction is an essential part of routing. Since macro cells, I...
Multi-agent research often borrows from biology, where remarkable examples of collective intelligence may be found. One interesting example is ant colonies’ use of pheromones as...
Abstract. Mobile ad hoc networks are a class of highly dynamic networks. In previous work, we developed a new routing algorithm, called AntHocNet, for these challenging network env...

Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) has been successfully applied to those combinatorial optimization problems which can be translated into a graph exploration. Artificial ants build s...
