Minimum Cost Multicast Routing Using Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm

Multicast routing (MR) is a technology for delivering network data from some source node(s) to a group of destination nodes. The objective of the minimum cost MR (MCMR) problem is to find an optimal multicast tree with the minimum cost for MR. This problem is NP complete. In order to tackle the prob...
