Abstract: Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithms have proven to be powerful tools for solving path planning problems. Improving the ACO algorithm involves modifying the pheromone update function to ...

Abstract: The electric vehicle routing problem (EVRP) is a complex logistical challenge that requires optimizing both route planning and charging decisions. Although ant colony optimization (ACO) has ...

Introduction: This work presents an adaptive ant colony (AdCO) framework for dynamic task management in heterogeneous Non-Terrestrial Network–Internet of Things (NTN-IoT) systems integrating Unmanned ...

Stories of camel spiders and their aggressive nature have been told for generations. Tales of these critters running at high speeds and taking down camels have made the species notorious across the ...

Ants are many things. They're hard workers and intensely social. They're quite strong for their size. And now they may also be a source of architectural inspiration too — for designing spaces that ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: The trajectory of life on Earth has always been predicated by genetic evolution, but two scientists from the University of Maine argue that culture ...
