Mesh-Partitioning with the Multiple Ant-Colony Algorithm
ed Abstract We present two heuristic mesh-partitioning methods, both of which build on the multiple ant-colony algorithm in order to improve the quality of the mesh partitions. The...

Search Bias in Constructive Metaheuristics and Implications for Ant Colony Optimisation
Constructive metaheuristics explore a tree of constructive decisions, the topology of which is determined by the way solutions are represented and constructed. Some solution repres...
