ACO Based QoS Routing Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks

Swarm intelligence based routing protocol for wireless sensor networks: Survey and future directions

“…ACO-QoSR, proposed by Camilo et al [11], is a reactive protocol that tries to cope with both strict delay requirements and the limited energy and computational resources available at the sensor nodes. The addressed problem consists in finding paths from sensor to sink nodes such that the total end-to-end delay is less than a bounding value D, while the energy residual ratio, ERR = E residual /E initial , is above a certain threshold value.…”

Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) based Routing Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN): A Survey

“…f) During backward travel, local models of the network status and the local routing table of each visited node are modified by the agents as a function of the path they followed and of its goodness. [36] ACO-QoSR, a reactive routing algorithm was developed by Cai et. al in 2006 to tackle problems of constraint delay and energy in Wireless Sensor Networks.…”

Secure and Robust Multi-Constrained QoS Aware Routing Algorithm for VANETs

“…MCQ routing and securing the routing process in ad hoc networks have been separately studied. Recently, much work has been carried out on ACObased QoS routing algorithms for mobile ad hoc [28], [29], [30], [31], [32], [33], [34] and sensor networks [35], [36], [37], [38]. However, little attention has been given to providing MCQ routing in VANETs utilising the ACO technique.…”
