    A hybrid ant colony optimization approach for the design of reliable networks
    (2007) Dengiz, B.; Altiparmak, F.; Belgin, O.; 0000-0003-1730-4214; 0000-0001-6702-2608; AAF-7020-2021; K-1080-2019
    This paper presents a new solution approach, which is a hybridization of ant colony optimization (ACO) and simulated annealing (SA), called (h_ACO) to design of communication networks. The design problem is to find the optimal network topology where total cost is minimum and all-terminal reliability is not less-than a given level of reliability. The effectiveness of the h_ACO is investigated comparing its results with those obtained by SA and ACO, which are basic forms of the h_ACO, and also GAs given in the literature for the design problem. Computational results show that the h_ACO is an effective heuristic approach to design of reliable networks.
