Research on MPI-Based Parallel Max-Min Ant System

Article Preview

Abstract:

When solving large scale combinatorial optimization problems, Max-Min Ant System requires long computation time. MPI-based Parallel Max-Min Ant System described in this paper can ensure the quality of the solution, as well as reduce the computation time. Numerical experiments on the multi-node cluster system show that when solving the traveling salesman problem, MPI-based Parallel Max-Min Ant System can get better computational efficiency.
