Overview and Applications of GPGPU Based Parallel Ant Colony Optimization (2203.11487v1)
Published 22 Mar 2022 in cs.DC
Abstract: Ant Colony Optimization algorithm is a magnificent heuristics technique based on the behavior of ants. Parallel computing is a means to achieve the desired results in commensurable execution time. Parallelization of Ant Colony Optimization is utilized to solve large and complex problems. This paper discusses a review of different parallelization approaches for Ant Colony Optimization and its various applications. Parallel Ant Colony Optimization has proved to be a successful approach for highly constrained problems such as routing, scheduling, timetabling, etc. Parallelization of Ant Colony Optimization reduces the execution time, increases the size of the problem, etc.
