QoS Routing Algorithm Based on Parameter Adaptive Ant Colony Optimization

Ant colony optimization (ACO) is a kind of new type heuristically optimizing algorithm, having ability to organize itself. In order to solve the problem that QoS routing faces while study at present, this paper proposes a new QoS routing algorithm based on an improved ACO which introduces a routing quality based parameter adaptive mechanism. Simulation results demonstrate that the algorithm has a better performance in generating a path satisfying operation's QoS demand.
