📖 Performance Analysis of Swarm Intelligence Based Routing Protocols. MANET and Wireless Mesh Networks.

The ant colony algorithm is one of the most successful experiences based on swarm intelligence. Ant colonies reside in social insect societies and maintain distributed systems that present a highly structured social organization despite of the simplicity of their individuals. In this book, Intelligent AntNet based Routing Algorithm (IANRA) is presented for routing in WMNs and MANET to find optimum and near-optimum paths for data packet routing. Furthermore the performance of proposed IANRA has been investigated and compared with other Routing protocols in the same category.
