Abstract

The multicast routing problem with quality of service (QoS) constraints is a key requirement of computer networks supporting multimedia applications. In order to resolve Qos multicast routing effectively and efficiently, an improved ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm is proposed to resolve this problem.The core idea of improved ACO algorithm is mainly realized through pheromone local and global updating rule.Experimental results show that this algorithm can find optimal solution quickly and has a good scalability.
