Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) • Traveling salesman problem :- A salesman must visit n cities, passing through each city only once, beginning from one of them which is considered as his base,and returning to it. • The cost of the transportation among the cities is given. • The program of the journey is requested , that is the order of visiting the cities in such a way that the cost is the minimum.
Traveling salesman problem Traveling salesman problem is NP-complete. This means that to obtain optimal route we have to through all possible routes and Number of routes increase exponentially.
Traveling salesman problem • Number of possible routes with 50 cities is (50-2)! , which is • 12,413,915,592,536,072,670,862,289,047,373,375,038,521,486,354,677,760,000,000,000. • So for large instance compute optimal solution is impossible. • Instead of finding exact solution optimization tachniques compute solution that is close to the optimal solution. • Ant colony optimization is a metaheuristic to compute a solution close to optimal solution.
Ant colony optimization ( ACO ) • Ant colony optimization algorithm is a metaheuristic that can be used to define heuristic function applicable to wide set of different problems. • ACO is inspired by behaviour of real ants. • Key concept of ACO based on communication among ants based on the use of chemical produce by ants called as pheromone. • Ants use pheromone trail to making path on ground.
Ant colony optimization ( ACO ) • Algorithm:- • Procedure ACOMetaheuristic Set parameters, initialize pheromone trails While( termination condition not met ) Do Construct Solution Update pheromone daemon Action end end
Ant colony optimization ( ACO ) • Construct solution :- Construct solution manage a colony of ants that visit adjacent states of consider problem (i.e. Traveling salesman problem ) construction graph Gc( v , e ). • They move by a local decision policy make use of pheromone trail and heuristic information. • Initially , ant are out on randimely chosen paths. • At each construction step , ant k apply problalistic choice to decide which state to visit next.
Ant colony algorithm ( ACO ) • Probability for kth ant to move from state i to state j is given by xy is amount of pheromone for transition from x to y. xy is heuristic information. is parameter to control influence of pheromone. is parameter to control influence of heuristic value.

ACO Concept • UpdatePheromones:- • When all ants comleted a solution pheromones updated by • Is amount phermones deposited for a state transionxy. • ρ is evaporation coefficient and is the amount of pheromone deposited. • DaemonActions:- DaemonAction is procedure to implement centralized action which cannot be performed by single ant.example –decide whether deposit additional pheromone to bias the search process.

Parrallel implementation of ACO • Our target is to parrallize the sequential algorithm. • On large instances sequential algorithm does not use full resources.Ex:- if we have 6-processors sequential algorithm works as one process. • To make better use of available resources parrallel process work concurrently on system. Ant speed up process of finding solution.
